In his works, Chen Wenling deals with various current but also timeless themes, e.g. changes within society, the nature of human beings or growing consumer behaviour. His sculptures are full of symbolism and combine critical commentary with subtle humour. The sometimes grotesque exaggeration of the motifs makes them particularly poignant. This is also the case with the sculpture 'Games', which shows two naked, carefree boys - albeit not realistically, but in the bright signal colour red and with surreal shapes of arms and legs. This deliberate manipulation of the human form makes it an independent and powerful symbol of freedom, naturalness and joie de vivre.bronze sculpture, hand-patinated in red, cast using the lost wax technique on a stainless steel base. Limited edition of 300 pieces, signed. With certificate. Size 46 x 13 x 16 cm (h/w/d). Weight 2.4 kg.

Christoph Fischer summarises his works in various series. These include, for example, his series of boats and fish, summarised under the title 'Tiefe' (depth), then mythological works and, for some years now, almost archaic-looking, shield-armoured guardian figures. However, Fischer has always remained true to animal sculpture and has achieved great mastery in this field. His barn owl, depicted in perfect proportions and only slightly abstracted, looks at the viewer with penetrating eyes and seems to say with the wisdom of all owl birds: "You think you know. But I am wise." Sculpture in fine bronze, cast using the lost wax technique, chiselled by hand, polished and patinated brown. Limited edition of 99 pieces, numbered, monogrammed and hallmarked with the foundry and ars mundi stamp. With numbered certificate of authenticity and limitation certificate.

The Munich sculptor Cordula Dobes has been working as a freelance artist since the 1990s. Since then, her works have been presented with great success in numerous exhibitions. The well-known art critic Reinhart Müller-Mehlis once aptly summarised Dobes' art as follows: 'By seemingly abstracting herself away from nature, Cordula Dobes is able to take possession of it. A glance at her 'Bird of the Night' shows what he meant: the shape of the bird, albeit composed of elements that look like rectangles, spheres, cubes and ellipses, captures the essence of the night bird better than a mimetic depiction ever could.sculpture in fine bronze, cast using the lost wax technique, chiselled, polished and patinated by hand.
