For forty thousand years, we have been carving and moulding, shaping and chiselling, feeling our way and sensing our place in the world through sculpture.
Jo Baring, art historian and curator, takes us on a journey through prehistoric beginnings to contemporary masters.
From the Lion Man in a German cave to Michelangelos Piet and the works of Hepworth, Moore and Bourgeois, this is sculpture seen afresh as memory, myth and meaning made visible.
