Sculpture as a specific medium is rarely investigated within a deeply cultural, philosophical context, nor within visual art itself. Whilst discussions about installation art, performance art, or other 3D art forms are widespread, the discourse on sculpture seems to be stuck in historical, material, or thematic frameworks. This is a loss for our understanding of art in general, and of sculpture in particular. In order to assess contemporary art practices, one should have a better understanding of the logics that are at work within sculpture as a medium, and how they differ from other art forms. Drawing from literature, philosophy, psychoanalysis and semiotics, Ernst van Alphen explores 'seven logics' of sculpture: the logic of inner necessity; the logic of narration; the logic of sculpting space; the logic of the solid; the logic of assemblage; the logic of architectural space; and the logic of the specific object. These relate to aspects such as the senses, the skin, the body, objecthood, narrative dynamics, the shaping of space, fragmentation, and montage. 'Seven logics of sculpture' opens up new ways of looking at, understanding, and appreciating sculpture, placing the medium at the heart of art's experience; how sculpture can be shaped, assembled, encountered, seen and embodied.

Documenta is regarded as the most important exhibition of contemporary art, drawing attention from all over the world. The "Hundred Day Museum" became an unparalleled success. Under continually changing directorship, and in the equally leisurely and inexorable rhythm of five years, documenta has advanced to become an authoritative worldwide seismograph of contemporary art
