Sir Anthony Caro

Sir Anthony Caro was a renowned British sculptor known for his innovative abstract metal works. He pioneered a new approach to sculpture by creating large, freestanding pieces directly from steel and other industrial materials, often arranged with a sense of balance and movement. Caro’s work broke away from traditional sculpture by emphasizing form, space, and material in an open, geometric style. His influence helped shape modern sculpture in the 20th century, making art more accessible and emphasizing physicality and structure over representational forms.
