Electric currents in modern art

/ɪˈlɛktrɪk/ /ˈkʌrənts/ /ɪn/ /ˈmɒdən/ /ɑːt/

Modern sculpture rarely surprises us any more. The idea that

/ˈmɒdən/ /ˈskʌlpʧə/ /ˈreəli/ /səˈpraɪzɪz/ /ʌs/ /ˈɛni/ /mɔː./ /ði/ /aɪˈdɪə/ /ðæt/

modern art can only be seen in museums is mistaken. Even

/ˈmɒdən/ /ɑːt/ /kæn/ /ˈəʊnli/ /biː/ /siːn/ /ɪn/ /mju(ː)ˈzɪəmz/ /ɪz/ /mɪsˈteɪkən./ /ˈiːvən/

people who take no interest in art cannot have failed to

/ˈpiːpl/ /huː/ /teɪk/ /nəʊ/ /ˈɪntrɪst/ /ɪn/ /ɑːt/ /ˈkænɒt/ /hæv/ /feɪld/ /tuː/

notice examples of modern sculpture on display in public

/ˈnəʊtɪs/ /ɪgˈzɑːmplz/ /ɒv/ /ˈmɒdən/ /ˈskʌlpʧər/ /ɒn/ /dɪsˈpleɪ/ /ɪn/ /ˈpʌblɪk/

places. Strange forms stand in gardens, and outside

/ˈpleɪsɪz./ /streɪnʤ/ /fɔːmz/ /stænd/ /ɪn/ /ˈgɑːdnz,/ /ænd/ /ˌaʊtˈsaɪd/

buildings and shops. We have got quite used to them. Some

/ˈbɪldɪŋz/ /ænd/ /ʃɒps./ /wiː/ /hæv/ /gɒt/ /kwaɪt/ /juːzd/ /tuː/ /ðɛm./ /sʌm/

so-called 'modern' pieces have been on display for nearly

/ˈsəʊˈkɔːld/ /ˈmɒdən/ /ˈpiːsɪz/ /hæv/ /biːn/ /ɒn/ /dɪsˈpleɪ/ /fɔː/ /ˈnɪəli/

eighty years.

/ˈeɪti/ /jɪəz./

In spite of this, some people -- including myself -- were

/ɪn/ /spaɪt/ /ɒv/ /ðɪs,/ /sʌm/ /ˈpiːpl/ /--/ /ɪnˈkluːdɪŋ/ /maɪˈsɛlf/ /--/ /wɜː/

surprise by a recent exhibition of modern sculpture. The first

/səˈpraɪz/ /baɪ/ /ə/ /ˈriːsnt/ /ˌɛksɪˈbɪʃən/ /ɒv/ /ˈmɒdən/ /ˈskʌlpʧə./ /ðə/ /fɜːst/

thing I saw when I entered the art gallery was a notice which

/θɪŋ/ /aɪ/ /sɔː/ /wɛn/ /aɪ/ /ˈɛntəd/ /ði/ /ɑːt/ /ˈgæləri/ /wɒz/ /ə/ /ˈnəʊtɪs/ /wɪʧ/

said: 'Do not touch the exhibits. Some of them are

/sɛd:/ /duː/ /nɒt/ /tʌʧ/ /ði/ /ɪgˈzɪbɪts./ /sʌm/ /ɒv/ /ðɛm/ /ɑː/

dangerous!' The objects on display were pieces of moving

/ˈdeɪnʤrəs!'/ /ði/ /ˈɒbʤɪkts/ /ɒn/ /dɪsˈpleɪ/ /wɜː/ /ˈpiːsɪz/ ɒv/ /ˈmuːvɪŋ/

sculpture.
