Tony Cragg, the British sculptor who is based in Wuppertal, Germany.
Back in the 1980s, Mr. Cragg was part of a \"new generation\" that included Richard Deacon, Bill Woodrow, and the slightly younger Anish Kapoor - artists characterized by slight means, jolly forms, and low-octane Duchampian wit. Mr. Cragg, in particular, looked to Arte Povera, the Italian post-minimal movement, subtly transforming detritus in a way that had a distinctly political edge. His sculpture seems informed, in an unbookish, cogently visual way, by genetics (science has often informed the look, if not the content, of Mr. Cragg\'s work).Mr. Cragg generates new forms from appropriated man-made objects that he subjects to specific processes of variation, repetition, or distortion.
This paper attempts to socio-semiotics approach of works analysis. Such as all of human behaviors, art is one of social behaviors which have generally conventions, idioms, grammars. The methods of representation has been influenced by circumstances that includes changing of understanding and various external factors. So the change of vision has been understood continuously in interactivity each other. From modernism to post- modernism, the shifts effects how make works. It is important to inquiry how inner change of author because it is not only essential process for understanding works but significant of insight of society through the works.
