After the war in Iraq statues

From 1979 to 2003, Saddam Hussein in power in Iraq, twenty-four years. During this period, he experienced the Iran-Iraq war, the Gulf War and the invasion of the United States, from the mighty to self-destruction. So, he left behind something? For everyone visible countless stone statues and Monument. These the bronze stone carving of things and was known as Saddam's "spiritual heritage". How to treat these heritage is a hot issue in the reality of political life in Iraq.
Saddam's "spiritual heritage" scattered across Iraq, the place where most capital Baghdad. Baghdad political and commercial center of the Arab Empire from the mid-8th century AD, and later developed into the center of the Arab-Islamic civilization. The city has built the mosque a few hundred seats, has been referred to as the "Mosque City. In July 1979, Saddam Hussein became President of Iraq, and the Commander-in-Chief of the armed forces. At this time, a time when large-scale development of the Iraqi oil, rolling in petrodollars of Saddam mind expansion. To the founding of the Arab Empire Ayyubid dynasty monarch Saladin from most wanted to be the overlord of the Persian Gulf and the Arab world, leaving a legacy. September 22, 1980, he represented the Iraqi war to Iran, and the outbreak of the Iran-Iraq war. In eight years during the war, Saddam Hussein on the one hand preach Iraq "brilliant victory" achieved on the battlefield, on the one hand, the massive construction projects in the rear, to build their own statues and war memorials. "Iraq Memorial building" a book of Samir Khalili said Saddam "the first to own to determine the winner of the war, to establish the image of their own" great leader ", will soon turn Iraq into" The statue of the ocean, the Baghdad Monument City.
The most famous in all of Iraq's Saddam statue, also the last built one stands in Baghdad's Paradise Square. This bronze statue is seven meters high, is built Saddam's 65-year-old birthday, April 28, 2002. However, time is less than one year, on April 9, 2003, U.S. troops captured Baghdad, first of all put it or leave it. This immediately set off a chain reaction across the country hundreds of Buddha statues of "great leader" were removed. The removal of Saddam's statue soon comes to want to remove some of the monuments built by Saddam era.
In early 2005, the Government of Iraq to establish "clear the remains of the Baath Party, and to consider the establishment of a new monument committee" if you want to remove some monuments devoted to the problem. The Committee consists of personnel from different ethnic and sectarian First review on dozens of monuments built in Baghdad Saddam era. The large bronze murals of some buildings, such as the wall described Baath Party history wall, a tribute to the monument of Iraqi prisoners of war in the Iran-Iraq war, the Commission does not dispute, decided to immediately dismantle. However, some buildings, especially in Baghdad, the most famous of the three landmark - the Monument of the Unknown Soldier, the Monument to the Martyrs and the Arc de Triomphe, in the course of the discussion, the Commission has a different view.
Monument of the Unknown Soldier in the the Baghdad the city Zula park nearby. Originally, in saa Dayton Street, built in 1959, there is a statue of the Unknown Soldier. It is dedicated to the history of Iraq all the unknown soldiers who sacrificed their lives for the defense of the motherland. Soon the beginning of the Iran-Iraq war, Saddam's request to re-built a specially dedicated to the unknown soldiers sacrifice in this war. Therefore, people monument conventionally called the new Unknown Soldier Monument. Monument built in a conical hill 250 meters in diameter. Hills is said to be according to the instructions of Saddam, a lot of dirt piled shipped from the Iran-Iraq war front. The center of the hill, is a like a large disk hanging in mid-air. Disc diameter of 42 meters and weighs 550 tons, from side to hold up the cornerstone of a 12-meter, and ground to form a 12-degree angle of inclination. Disc appearance of bread with a layer of brass, the inner surface by some of the copper alloy of the pyramid-shaped module blocks. From afar, the disc facing the sunrise bloom like a sunflower. The Iraqis commonly known as its to volley flew tray, hanging in midair lid ". The disc represents traditional weapons and shields in Iraq. Warriors armed with shields in fighting with the enemy, the shield into the air before dying. Just below the shield, placed in a 4 m long rectangular box-shaped coffin, the symbol of the unknown soldiers of those buried underground in shield protection is rest.
The monument was designed by Iraqi sculptor Khalid Al - Rahal and supervision of construction was completed in 1982. Twenty years, there has been the place of the Iraqis on holidays to pay their respects. The monument is built to comply with the will of Saddam, the Review Committee has not proposed demolition. Iraqi newspapers reported that people just want to dilute the connotation of the Iran-Iraq war, the monument, as the country devotees pay homage to monumental Chinese dynasties. Of course, this also includes the U.S. military invasion of Iraq manufacturing many "unknown soldier".
In this unknown soldier monument to be completed soon, and the construction of a martyrs' monument in Baghdad. Martyrs Monument was built in the amusement park in the east of downtown. Iraq's famous artist Muhammad Aitken - Tuer Ji design, the construction of Japan's Mitsubishi Corporation. Central in a huge artificial lake, the construction of a 190 m diameter circular platform. The center of the platform erected two huge, 40 meters in diameter and sky blue hemisphere. Two hemispheres by shiny ceramic tile mosaic on the reinforced concrete skeleton, towering relative standing, a symbol of the soul of the deceased in the freedom of flying. Iraqis usually always joked that, this is a eggshell neatly turned into two halves and put it there. In fact, each half of the representatives are a representative of the mosque's dome, but the dome no buckle release, but erected. The designers obviously learn from the traditional Islamic Architecture of beauty, the use of the Western modern sculpture techniques to be abstract. This sculpture called the Arab and Western collusion, has been highly appreciated the famous British the sculptor Kanniess • Armitage.
The Iran-Iraq war is the worst fighting in the World War II, the most destructive war. According to conservative estimates, the direct economic losses caused by the war to both sides is about $ 600 billion, while the number of casualties on both sides are not the same, is generally estimated that about 60 million war dead, injured more than 100 million. Iraq, the majority of people killed in 1983 Iran launched a large counterattack. Martyrs Monument was completed in 1983, is actually a pre-built for the large number of war dead. Below the monument built memorial, the walls of which are brick with slate. Each to a certain time, put the number of war dead names engraved into the above. The rows name, with Arabic writing, in alphabetical order. Which both Arabs and Kurds, both Sunni Muslim, Shiite Muslim, there are a small number of Christians. On the ground between the two hemispheres, a group the night of the burning flame, a symbol of the martyrs live forever the spirit of sacrifice for the country.

Some cities the excellent Chengdiao works to permanent visual image so that each enter the environment in which people are immersed in a strong culture, to feel the pulse of urban art and sculpture.
1. Historic
The stone sculpture as illustrations in our history books, records the history and civilization of a different era.
Different era in the history of sculpture have been documented in different periods, the people's living conditions, status and spiritual pursuits, sculptures of different times in different years is like reading textbooks, in every age people have different thinking and learn.
Any city is a product of history, has a historical tradition different from other cities. Hide behind in every city with a rich cultural and historical allusions.
2 Humanities
Any city has the development of the law. Its historical background, economic development, population status determines a unique culture. The culture of the city to some extent determines the basic conditions of stone sculpture.

In Copenhagen, Denmark, built in 1908 as the city marked Jiefen fountain ", and become a symbol of Copenhagen. However, when, after the birth of the 1913 creation based on Hans Christian Andersen's fairy tale "Little Mermaid", "Jiefen fountain" gradually forgotten, "The Little Mermaid" gradually instead of "Jiefen fountain into Copenhagen, and even Denmark flag.
5. Revealing
From the concept of sculpture Wai imagine sculptor was thinking, gives people unlimited reverie, in a limited space, shaping people's spirit of infinite space.
Hegel: sculpture and architecture, "on the construction of simple perceptual material things to shape the image according to its substance space form." Carving put the spirit itself (such conscious purpose and self-contained sexual) performance in the physical image suitable for the performance of the spiritual personality in essence, these two aspects is presented as an indivisible whole in the eyes of the witness and the mental and physical. "
6. Commemorative exchange

Stainless steel sculpture in the round sculpture as a sculpture of one of the clay modeling approach, the range of applications is very wide, is the most common form of a sculpture of the people, the book will highlight the techniques of sculpture portrait sculpture in the round.
, Stainless steel relief sculpture
The so-called stainless steel relief sculpture is the product of the combination of sculpture and painting, compression approach to deal with the object, rely on perspective and other factors to the performance of the three-dimensional space, and only one or both sides to watch. The relief is generally attached to another plane, so in the construction use more the APPLIANCES artifacts can often be seen. Due to the characteristics of the compression, the smaller the space occupied, it is therefore suitable for the decoration of a variety of environments. In recent years, it has accounted for an increasingly important role in urban landscaping. Reliefs and sculpture in the round on the content, form and material and colorful.
There are several forms of the shrine style, high relief, bas-relief, line engraving, openwork style.
China's ancient grotto sculptures can be attributed to the shrine sculpture, depending on the modeling approach can be divided into the realism of the decorative and the abstract;
High relief compression small, big ups and downs, close to figure sculpture in the round, even half of Yuandiao a form, such a relief chiaroscuro strong, prominent visual effects;

 Hollow carving is the so-called relief of the bottom plate removed, thereby producing a great variety of negative space, and the contour of the negative space and positive space a mutual conversion rhythm.

The city stainless steel sculpture is organic

The city stainless steel sculpture is organic elements of role in the organization of urban spatial structure, only the importance of this factor must be the city in order to obtain the image of the United States, poetic tribute. The City Sculpture is an identification system, it is a historical context, cultural information to convey. bronze sculpture to the city in order to promote a spirit, this spirit and inspire them to forge ahead. Long Island, New York's "Statue of Liberty" free manifesto is the entire Murray erect States of America, a good sculpture is a symbol of the spirit of the city. bronze sculpture as a memorial, people a lasting impact on some of the important events occurred in Tiananmen Square "Monument to the People's Heroes, the former Soviet Union" the motherland as "a symbol of this country indomitable spirit of resistance, a nation still to the world to have a sustained impact. Common good bronze sculpture by the public welcome, support and care. The City Sculpture is to convey the United States, to enable people to find meaning in their daily lives, and make life more colorful. Green street, the community is full of romantic poetry, sculpture of interest in life is the portrayal of the people living life. The City Sculpture is a promoter of a new form of society, its progressive ideas, words of wisdom says the way to lead the New Wave era. The new period, we advocate Landscape City, Garden City, the sculpture play its role as the strong performance of the landscape is the golden opportunity, a mountain of stone, plants and trees, a hug sunshine, skim springs, obsolete plant and machinery, collapsed the chimney are art resources, can be life-giving ideas and means of art become the humanities constitute the landscape, the Midas touch of the miraculous, is the post-modern typical characteristics. Keep thinking is the essence of art and responsibility to cut expenditure on material resources to carry forward the wisdom of the arts in the substances marked the beginning of the modern era. By underground mining in the cultural heritage protection, but only to protect only the heritage of natural resources at the end to pay attention to any of its ruined loss, if the government attaches great importance to the protection and configuration set using artistic means to be, and will become the special heritage landscape. Mandatory in the transformation of the old fold destroyed, the destruction of the historical context of the huge bronze sculpture can play a role in memory to identify the system to recover. The corresponding side of the sculpture and the space environment rich emphasis on the urban environment and coordination

The material characteristics of the stainless steel sculpture

1. Material selection: from traditional materials to modern materials
With the continuous development of the modern art movement, the figure sculpture into a more freewheeling era. Sculpture material applications, the development of large-scale machine industry open up a new area, a large number of metal processing means being used. Contemporary Sculpture in the more than four-fifths of the work is the metal material. The reason for this phenomenon is not accidental, and the progress of human civilization is largely attributed to metal materials processing means, which makes the metal has a great advantage - capable of cutting, welding, casting, forging, also can be sanded, polished, and on rust, the beauty of the performance of copper, iron, steel and other materials and material to be fully exploited.
After World War II, as the metal of the important concepts of modern industrial civilization carrier readymade becoming the material of choice for stainless steel sculpture, special metal material has not only a sculptor medium of artistic creation, and the artist's concept carrier reflect the properties of the human spirit, to give stainless steel sculptures to the the greater shaping charm, embodied the mental outlook of the era.
2. Status of the material: material language from passive to active
It should be said, when some kind of material selected by the artists, and put into some kind of their own or with other materials common artistic context, they become a kind of artistic language. Traditional art, because of the level of awareness of the external morphology of the material is still in the conceptual understanding of the material, the material of speaking capacity and autonomy. A language factors can a decisive role in the artists and their artistic creation, but it is actually subject to the artist passive artists of thought and consciousness spokesperson. We can see, often used in traditional sculpture, bronze metal material is a typical "endorsement" material, most stone sculpture, it is only the means and tools of ideology materialized.
With the continuous advancement of science and technology, the human ability to understand the world has been greatly improved, awareness and perceptions about the world, substances also changing, rapidly changing human art. On the artists' awareness and choice of materials, this change was the most direct, "let the material speak for itself" almost become conscious of the artists. This change is particularly evident in the history of the development of the modern stainless steel sculpture,. Works of minimalism sculptor David Smith, the author is willing to simplify the body into a pure geometry strongly faded even when in the creation of their own personality, make works more impersonal, objective, in order to achieve the greatest degree show stainless steel The purpose of the charm of the material itself, so that the stainless steel speak pure language, the right to speak to the material.

Western sculpture, how did they develop?

Now art status of social casting bronze sculpture in rising, should increasingly wide range of historic bronze sculpture western sculpture is also experiencing a long era spans.

The public sculpture creation should try to meet the popular culture

The public sculpture exists in urban public space, associated with the city, is no longer a purely personal artworks of art. Now, a lot of artists still think that the public sculpture presents personal works of social and personal expression imposed on society, and the public to accept and adapt to their own individuality. A large part of people always want the personal traces remain in the community, which is tantamount to the creation of the prototype figure sculpture. As a result, the impact of the work may be greatly reduced, likely the public is not recognized, and may also be that the work does not meet the character of the city.
Woods bronze art into public sight, the first is a condensation of the public will to comply with the general aesthetic of the moment, to serve the community. But not to say that all artists to completely aesthetic of the "aggrieved" at the moment. In reference to the current average level of aesthetic premise, the artists also increase "in advance the amount of" playing "patch" in advance. The art also has a surviving sexual decades later, 100 years after the aesthetic level should also be taken into account. In Western society, the artist is also the pursuit of individuality, enlightened public group does not exclude the personality and style. Civil society in China is forming process the universal aesthetic can not step.
Future Bright sculpture creation should as far as possible in line with the popularity of public sculpture.

This step can be said that the blueprint for the design of the unicorn,public sculpted basis, related to the success or failure of the Kirin overall shape. Outline not only need to public sculptor unicorn form to make accurate positioning, but also need to have a certain painting based. Sketched the outline, before looking for parties on the stone, find party one piece of stone available site out of the box, and the available four corners of the stone must be at right angles; the other hand, can be determined according to the size of the piece of stone Kirin's ratio, as far as possible to reduce the waste of the stone. To find a party to the fountain pulled out a straight line, according to the proportion of various parts of the unicorn, with a brush dipped in ink to draw a rough outline. Under normal circumstances, the stone carving unicorn proportion to base one-third of the stone, accounted for two-thirds of the stone unicorn, the head and one-third of the Kirin Kirin outline the exact location of the head, and then sketch showing the location of the front and hind legs. Then you can cut the shortage of the contours of the unicorn drawn, the excess partial To contour outside chipped away called reduction shortage. Less shortage the artificial reduction shortage and the mechanical reduction shortage and the methodology used, will greatly improve the the carved efficiency. So-called the artificial reduction shortage is entirely hammer and Qianzai to large excess parts chipped away, pay attention, to make the Qianzai the operation direction outwards, so cut down the stones would not hurt yourself another operator the opposite side and do not stand, otherwise the stones flying will hurt others. The artificial reduction shortage also said crude to less shortage or time reduction shortage.
Shortage of mechanical reduction is the use of the cutting machine to cut the shortage, because artificial stone carving Less shortage can not be one less place, such as the distance from the contour lines closer area and smaller blocks, with Qianzai less shortage of force The surface is a point, if the force is too large, a Qianzai down is likely to be less more stress surface cutting machine is a straight line, so by the cutting machine shortage reduction, minus the parts will be relatively accurate. Cutting, neither dare cut, the stone carving nor can should not cut off the local tangent overdone slightly larger area of ​​the site that you want to cut, or deep, can be ready to cut parts of the first divided into several small pieces then all broken up, so that repeated operation several times to achieve the desired level of cut with this method it will be fast and accurate. In short, we must grasp the depth of good cutting accurately. All blocks outside until the entire contour of the Kirin less finished, less considered the end to shortage.
