The Sculpture section of the PLMJ Foundation’s collection includes a wide range of artists with different artistic practices and different media and techniques, demonstrating the Foundation’s special attention to technical processes and content whose references and contexts are important in contemporary artistic production. In the book Materiais Transitórios, and according to the reflections of each author, the way each artist works with his or her base is subject to a transition between the process and the options or choices that each work requires.
The selection of works that make up this book is not intended to cover the entire group of sculptures selected, but it does signal works that represent important moments in the affirmation of these artists’ work, regardless of the public development that their careers have or have not confirmed.
