Dernières tendances de la sculpture, du moins aux USA, au travers des "2008 Outstanding Student Achievement in Contemporary Sculpture Awards".
Chaque année, le ISC (International Sculpture Center, http://www.sculpture.org/) organise et expose le résultat d'une compétition ouverte aux écoles artistiques supérieures pour encourager les jeunes sculpteurs. Les professeurs sont invités à nominer certains étudiants diplômés qui soumettent un dossier à un jury de professionnels de l'art. Voici quelques primés.
