“Appreciation of sculpture
depends upon the ability to respond to form in three dimensions. That is
perhaps why sculpture has been described as the most difficult of all arts;
certainly it is more difficult than the arts; certainly it is more difficult
than the arts which involve appreciation of flat forms, shape in only two
dimensions. Many more people are "form-blind" than colour-blind. ”
