I have to write a paper comparing two art sculptures.

I have write if it's an open or closed contour but I don't know what that means.

1 answer

closed contour: like a solid, enclosed mass: soccer ball, or a cube
Open contour; the inside is revealed: like a cutaway, or a klein bottle (Broken Link Removed)
