The material in this sculpture isn&#039;t rough, and hasn&#039;t a &#039;left as found&#039; look, so not Brutalist.</p><p>The sculpture s-i-s posted is referred to as Brutalist because it looks like he found sheets of metal and just stood them upright. He didn&#039;t, of course, it was carefully designed, it is the look.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
