Ottmar Hörl: Sculpture 'Erdmännchen' (2009), gold-plated version
€590.00
When the Nuremberg art professor Ottmar Hörl tackles his projects, it quickly becomes confusing: he carries ten thousand owls to Athens, decorates the Dürer city of Nuremberg with thousands of Dürer rabbits, Wittenberg with 800 Luther figures or the old imperial palace in Aachen with 500 small sculptures of Charlemagne. At the Hohenkarpfen estate in 2009, there were 1,000 life-size meerkats. Why? The nearby town of Trossingen is twinned with Windhoek in Namibia. And that's where the cute fellows live who were on a 'company outing' (the title of the exhibition) at the Hohenkarpfen estate in Germany at the time. ars mundi exclusive edition. Signed special edition of 199 copies made of gold-plated (24 carat) cast metal. Format 14.5 x 4 x 8.5 cm (H/W/D). Weight approx. 0.73 kg.

Ottmar Hörl: Sculpture 'Rose' (2012), rose gold-plated version
€590.00
'I am an artist who deals with serial structures, with sequencing systems, only when a certain number is reached does it start to become interesting as a picture,' says Ottmar Hörl about his art. And so the artist has already populated the main market square in Nuremberg with 7,000 rabbits (2003), the market square in Wittenberg with 800 Luther figures (2010), the imperial court of the Residenz in Munich with 2,000 white and blue lions (2015) or carried 10,000 owls to Athens for the 2004 Olympic Games. On Herzogplatz in Zweibrücken, it was roses. The background: Zweibrücken is known as the 'City of Roses', as it is home to over 60,000 roses of 2,000 different varieties in one of the largest gardens in Europe. The rose has always been more than just a flower: it has been a symbol since ancient times - in Christian iconography for paradise, later for love, for poetry, for wisdom, for love, for beauty and for transience. It is also this ambiguity that makes them so fascinating for artists. Following Ottmar Hörl's art exhibition in Zweibrücken, we have produced a numbered and signed special edition of 199 pieces made of heavy, rose gold-plated (18 carat) pewter alloy. Size 7 x 9.5 x 9 cm (H/W/D). Weight approx. 1.7 kg. ars mundi exclusive edition.
