Abstract
Tsuruzo Ishii, thesculptor, examined the mechanism of the beauty of the human body, describing it as “living and moving architecture”. With a structural commonality to architecture, he created a plastic methodology which set a pillar inside a sculpture, and defines the essence of structure beauty as a straight line of mechanical framework. Thismethodology is the same as structural logic which tries to describe beauty as dynamism, but not shape.
This study shows “movement” : the element of a sculpture which is led from mechanical axis, and is based on Ishi’s theory and works. As an example, the statue of Kiyoo Koyama “tatsukoto”(2009)by the sculptor Hiroshi Hongo, will be picked up
