I honestly think we should retvrn to classical sculpture, I've had it up to here with modern and abstract sculpture, they all look like shit and are created by talentless hacks. Like congrats, you made a fucked up cube, it took you three days and the city just paid you $5 million for it.
No more fucked up cubes, only statues of ripped naked men.
But then how will the fail-sons and fail-daughters of rich assholes help their parents launder money???
but making fucked up cubes is so much easier than learning anatomy, sculpting techniques, material hardness, chiselling etc
Pretty sure these guys still exist but they just do dull statues of local athletes or "hero" soldiers that probably ate someone alive in the Middle East on a dare for their favourite MRE snack.
that literally just looks like my dad 40 years ago, same mustache too
The Dying Gaul, aka "Jesus I've got a cramp in my leg this hurts like shit"
This is just a copy, but the now lost original was created sometime in the Hellenistic period.
Here's the Wikipedia page for anyone interested in learning more.

Gist of the Statue is it depicts a dying Galatian Celtic man dying in battle after a scrape with roman soldiers.
