please select the best answer from the choices provided

○ a
○ b
○ c
○ d

Explanation:

• Option B: Sculpture in the round is 3D and meant to be viewed from all sides, so this is true.
• Option C: These sculptures are posed to have interesting compositions from all angles, which is correct.
• Option D: The division of positive and negative space in a round sculpture does depend on the viewing angle, so this is true.
• Option A: The main techniques of sculpture in the round are typically modeling, casting, carving, and assemblage? Wait, no—actually, the three main techniques are not casting, carving, and assemblage (assemblage is more of a mixed - media approach). Wait, correction: The main techniques for sculpture in the round are carving, modeling, and casting. Assemblage is a different approach and not one of the three main traditional techniques for sculpture in the round. So statement A is not true.

Answer:

A. There are three main techniques of sculpture in the round which include, casting, carving, and assemblage.
