Social Sculpture

Social Sculpture - Another World Is Possible, A journey  through Chaotic state to state of Reform & Creativity 

Human beings Can & Must learn to be creative in many different ways. 
(Joseph Beuys)  (Joseph Beuys was a german artist who first gave the idea of social sculpture in 1960's)

"Social Sculpture is an expanded application of human creativity followed by
the broader definition of Art that would result in a conscious act of shaping of bringing some aspect of the society or the environment from a chaotic state into a state of form or structure. 

Social sculpture is accomplished....
- Cooperatively, 
- Creatively, and 
- Across disciplines. 


Everyone is an artist does not mean to suggest that all people should or could be creators of traditional artworks. Rather, it means that..... 
One should not see creativity as the special realm of artists, but that everyone should apply creative thinking in their own area of specialization whether it be science, sport, agriculture, law, education, homemaking, or the fine arts.

The need to change or to reform is urgent as all around us the fundamentals of life are crying out to be shaped, or created.


The very idea of Social Sculpture illustrates 
potential to transform society
