1. At first Strauss stated that the logic of a sculpture is inseparable from the logic of monument; they are the “commemorative representative.” The question is, how does one distinct the difference between these two? Does a sculpture become a monument when it represents something significant? What does the negative condition have to do with this?
2. Strauss mentions that sculptures cannot function as both architecture and landscape at the same time, using Brancusi's Beginning of the World as an example. So if we looked at Goldsworthy's Egg, which has the same subject with Brancusi's, is it not a sculpture anymore? since it is both an architecture and landscape. If it were not sculpture, is it then a monument?
