I wish to express my profound condolences to the family and friends of this great artist. He was a groundbreaker in the realm of sculpture, expanding both its definition and its very trajectory. He exerted a significant influence on the cultural context of our time, eloquently expressing philosophical and existential inquiry alike in material form. He will be greatly missed by those who knew him, but his legacy will live on in the annals of art.
