Нова скулптура

Name given to work of group of sculptors identified by critic Edmund Gosse in 1876 article in Art Journal titled 'The New Sculpture'. Distinguishing qualities were a new dynamism and energy as well as physical realism, mythological or exotic subject matter and use of symbolism, as opposed to prevailing style of frozen Neo-Classicism. Can be considered part of Symbolism. Keynote work was seen by Gosse as Leighton's Athlete Wrestling with a Python, but key artist was Alfred Gilbert followed by George Frampton. Important precursor was Michelangelesque work of Alfred Stevens.
