Hi and thank you for messaging. :)

It's because of the 6th clue: "Neither squares nor sculptures are blue." So the medium 'sculpture' cannot have the form 'square'.

(+1)

that phrase reads to me as; the sculpture is not blue and the square is not blue. 

!((sq = bl) | (sc = bl))

=>

(Sq != bl) & (sc != bl)

You could say instead 

There are no square or blue sculptures

!((sc = sq) | (sc = bl))

=>

(sc != sq) & (sc != bl)


See

I agree, it is a bit misleading.

I pretty much derived the clue description from here: https://logic.puzzlebaron.com/how-to-solve-a-logic-puzzle.php?t=neither-nor-clue...

I see if I can come up with a clue that is more clear. I think "There are no square or blue sculptures" is missing the hint, that squares also cannot be blue. ;) 

The complete clue would be something like: "Neither squares nor sculptures are blue" AND "Sculptures are not square".

Hey, I improved the wording a bit. (Better late than never ;) )

Hope it's clearer now. :)
