This book is not a history of style, nor a lexicon whose main advantage would be
completeness from A to Z. Its purpose is rather to plot in word and image the typical
features of 20th-century sculpture, bringing out connections and oppositions. Chronology, nationality and membership of this or that school play a subordinate role. Attention is directed to the problems of modern sculpture and an attempt is made to lend speech to this silent art.
