Arno Breker Art

5 newest listings RSS feed Art Wanted Associated Artists
B. 1900-1991 - The sculptor Arno Breker was born in Wuppertal in 1900 and died in Düsseldorf in 1991. Moved to Paris (1927), returned to Berlin (1933), where he taught at the school of fine arts (1938-45). He developed an ideal of beauty based on Antiquity and the Renaissance, which he adapted after 1933 to the Nazi philosophy. For this reason, Breker's work and stance has remained a source of controversy to this day. Those works, for example, sculptures for the olympic stadium (1936) and for many other representative state buildings have almost all been destroyed. After the war, Breker turned to bust portraiture and graphics and then concentrated on writing: in 1970, 'Hitler et moi' was published (Paris); in 1972 'Im Strahlungsfeld der Ereignisse'. ek
