Description of the Work
In auction, the iconic and famous Sponti (Activist) sculpture, presented in this vibrant and iconic yellow color variant. Known internationally for its unmistakable irreverent and provocative character, this sculpture perfectly embodies the artistic vision aimed at democratizing art and stimulating debate in public space.
The Artist
Ottmar Hörl is a German conceptual artist, sculptor, and creator of installations, actions, photographs, and objects. He has achieved worldwide popularity thanks to his radical, cutting-edge artistic concepts, as well as large-scale projects with serial sculptures in public spaces, based on his peculiar definition of sculpture as an organizing principle. Although he creates sculptures of many kinds, the Gnome (of which this figure is the most rebellious exponent) is probably one of his best-known works worldwide.
Materials and Maintenance
All Hörl products are designed and manufactured in Germany. The sculptures are made from non-toxic, shatterproof plastic material, making them suitable for both indoor and outdoor use. All sculptures are weather-resistant; however, as with any exterior material, they are exposed to the elements. To maintain lasting color intensity over time, it is recommended to install them in a partially sheltered location.
To guarantee authenticity, the piece bears the artist's signature incised under the base. A must-have work for contemporary art lovers, for collectors of Pop and conceptual sculptures, or simply for those who wish to add a touch of genius, irony, and irreverent design to their surroundings.
