About Anthony Caro
Anthony Caro (1924-2013) was an influential British sculptor known for his pioneering abstract sculptures that broke away from traditional sculptural conventions. He studied engineering before turning to sculpture, which explains the innovative use of materials and techniques in his art. Caro's works often involve industrial materials such as steel and incorporate elements of space and light. He played a significant role in the development of modern sculpture and his experimentation with form and space continues to inspire artists to this day.
