Three Places 1983

"Three Places" is a 1983 sculpture by Antony Gormley, a British artist known for his explorations of the human body. The artwork consists of three life-size figures, cast in iron, each positioned differently in a minimalist space. The figures are rendered in a simplified style, emphasizing the body's form rather than specific details. The piece invites contemplation on human existence and the different states of being, from standing and gazing to sitting and reclining. Gormley's work often deals with themes of presence, absence, and the relationship between the body and space.
