ABOUT THE ARTWORK

Story about the sculpture: Many of you probably know the story of the Minotaur from ancient Greek mythology. It was a monster with a human body and a bull's head. The Cretan king Minos had the famous builder Daedalus build a labyrinth for him, in which he imprisoned him and there he devoured human victims - young maidens and boys from Athens, until he was killed by the Athenian prince Thesus. I allowed myself an original and humorous sculptural treatment of the Minotaur. I humanized him by teaching him to play the violin. In my opinion, he seems to be quite a cute creature in this grotesque form. However, this sculpture also has a serious message. And that's because art is a magical tool that can soften and humanize even the bad... Important information: Even if I state that there are 3-5 copies of a specific sculpture, each of them is actually an original. The technique of my work is atypical and I have to model every single piece of the same sculpture again and create a mold into which the bronze is then poured. Despite over 40 years of experience, even I cannot model any of the other variations of the same motif completely identically. There are minor differences between them, even though in principle it is the same work. Sometimes it can happen that the work shown in the photo has already been sold in the meantime, and in the case of another order, I have to model this motif again from the beginning and have it cast into a new form. In this case, the time for sending the work is around 3 weeks, and it must be taken into account that this sculpture will differ in a few small details from the depicted work. But the advantage is that, for the above reasons, the purchased work is unique, and a completely identical work can simply never exist.
