David Smith


David Smith began a series of landscape sculptures in 1946. This piece is called Hudson River Landscape which was made in 1951. It is made out of steel. This sculpture was known as Smith's first mature artwork and he came up with this creation due to traveling by railroad between Albany and Poughkeepsie. I like this sculpture because when I step outside on campus I see the Hudson River. This piece of artwork is also very unique and I like how he incorporated many shapes.
