The theory of "globalization" first spread in the West in 1990s, and then spread to all parts of the world. Infiltrate into various fields of social science to varying degrees. In the field of art, the "globalization" of sculpture art has become one of the important topics.

"Globalization" is not a sudden appearance, but a historical development process, so the concept of "globalization" is a historical concept. The "globalization" of sculpture art, like the "globalization" of economy, is a living fact in contemporary times, and it is also an unavoidable and most challenging problem for China sculpture art, which will comprehensively and profoundly affect the reality and future of China sculpture art. In the context of "globalization", we can generally see a macroscopic and contradictory trend involving Chinese and foreign literature and art. Understanding this trend and conducting in-depth research on it is to predict and formulate the future.

Under the background of "globalization", the origin of "globalization" of China sculpture art can be traced back to the early 20th century. Generally speaking, the "globalization" trend of China sculpture art is the historical process of "integration of China and the West" in the history of modern art. As a part of the historical development of globalization, the modernization process of China sculpture art contains the contradiction between globalization and localization of sculpture art.

We look at the process of "artistic globalization" of world sculpture. Before putting forward the concept of "globalization", let's look at the sculpture art of ancient civilizations, such as Babylonian sculpture art, Mayan sculpture art and Indian sculpture art, and then look at the sculpture art of ethnic minorities around the world. Under the attack of strong culture on weak culture, the dissolution of local sculpture art is the inevitable result of "art globalization" Although this is cruel, it is a fact after all and may be the result of certain regularity. China's ancient sculpture art has been preserved and continued because of geographical environment and other factors, which is the luck of China people. However, at the end of19th century, under the attack of western imperialism, the country opened wide. One-way westernization of China sculpture art is the mainstream of China sculpture art in the past century, which is mainly reflected in two aspects: first, westernization of local sculpture art; The second is the westernization of foreign sculpture art.
