"They are social sculptures,"he explains."They are not only sculptures for the eyes.They are sculptures to spread the idea that we live in a time of garbage."So far,Schult's social sculptures have been on show in Paris,in Moscow's Red Square,on the Great Wall of China,and in the desert next to the Pyramids of Giza near Cairo. HA Schult's work is unforgettable Although his work has had a big influence on the art world,Schult remains modest about his creations:"Artists have to learn every time.We are not important.All that counts is the time in which we are living." Trash art has been around for years.But it seems that only the popular artists are regarded as true artists when working with trash.Why can't common people be considered artists when they use the same things and change them into some form of personal art?Maybe it's because we all have our own preset ideas of what art is and isn't,or whom artists are or should be. You can be an artist like Schult if you try Look at used metal cans.What might be done with them?Imagine them in any number of new uses,or imagine them simply as an art form.What about boxes or clothing?Boxes can usually serve as new storage containers and houses for pets.And clothing?Imagine taking old clothes and turning them into hats or hanging organizers.
