It is one of the
plastic arts. Durable sculptural processes originally used carving (the
removal of material) and modelling (the addition of material, as clay),
in stone, metal, ceramics, wood and other materials but, since
Modernism, there has been an almost complete freedom of materials and
process. A wide variety of materials may be worked by removal such as
carving, assembled by welding or modelling, or molded, or cast.
Sculpture
in stone survives far better than works of art in perishable materials,
and often represents the majority of the surviving works (other than
pottery) from ancient cultures, though conversely traditions of
sculpture in wood may have vanished almost entirely. However, most
ancient sculpture was brightly painted, and this has been lost.
Sculpture
has been central in religious devotion in many cultures, and until
recent centuries large sculptures, too expensive for private individuals
to create, were usually an expression of religion or politics. Those
cultures whose sculptures have survived in quantities include the
cultures of the ancient Mediterranean, India and China, as well as many
in South America and Africa.
The
Western tradition of sculpture began in ancient Greece, and Greece is
widely seen as producing great masterpieces in the classical period.
During the Middle Ages, Gothic sculpture represented the agonies and
passions of the Christian faith. The revival of classical models in the
Renaissance produced famous sculptures such as Michelangelo's David.
Modernist sculpture moved away from traditional processes and the
emphasis on the depiction of the human body, with the making of
constructed sculpture, and the presentation of found objects as finished
art works.

The main cause of a pending application is usually incomplete application documents. As a result you will be requested by the school’s admission office to re-check and modify all submitted application documents or perhaps even add extra documents and then re-submit them.
To avoid further delays, carefully read the university’s comments, modify your application form on ACASC, and re-upload the required application documents. You can contact ACASC on admission@acasc.cn for any help with regards to your pending application
Processing time varies for different applications. For example to process a degree program application requires more time than a Chinese language application. Confirmation for Chinese language application by the admission office usually takes 2 to 4 weeks. However, time for degree programs application differs. For example fall semester application processing is after March, and it takes a period of 1 to 2 months. This also depends on your qualification and the number of applicants.
