Essay / Research Paper Abstract
10 pages in length. The sculptures of Bernini stand out as some of the loudest Baroque responses to the turmoil of this period, representing a celebration of expression that had heretofore been remiss with Renaissance representation. Bernini, an artist of rare proportion who effectively coupled his own singular and distinctive style with that of the oft-considered painful growth from Renaissance to Baroque, reflected perfectly this ongoing struggle, right down to its particular preferences and decorum. The intuitive works that set him apart from other artists of the era – "David" and "Apollo and Daphne" – were the very same compositions that lent themselves to the metamorphosing social, religious and cultural climate - an objective he duly achieved by instilling a tangibility to his sculptures. Bibliography lists 5 sources.

of the art of poetry" (Bolland, 2000). Throughout the Baroque Period, the world was changing in leaps and bounds as a response
to the turmoil of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries; indeed, those within artistic circles were not to be left behind. Bernini was particularly influential to this cultural understanding; the
functions this artisan had upon the changing landscape was to demonstrate societys progressive nature as it related to each regions individual growth, which included - but was not limited to
- social, religious, cultural and sensual. II. DAVID Berninis use of architectural space surpasses any other artist of that era. Indeed,
the element of space is directly intertwined with the overall perception of the artists work, however it also stands alone as a demonstration of his individuality and expression of ideas.
