Minotaur Sculpture - Limited Edition of 6

Alexandra Kapogianni-Beth is a Greek art historian and sculptor based in Germany. She has started out sculpting and drawing over 20 years ago and has attended numerous art and sculpture courses in and out of Germany. In 2021 she also completed sculpting studies at IBKK Kunst- und Designzentrum in Bochum-Wattenscheid, Western Germany, and teaches the art of sculpting at this institute. Alexandra is a dynamic sculptor who uses a wide range of materials to create living and energetic works. “I am passionate about exploring the human body, its beauty and fragility. I create figurative sculptures, working with a model or referring to graphic anatomical representations. This allows me the freedom to see and shape the human body beyond the reality of nature. In my artworks I seek to capture the beauty of the body in its forms and movement, while showing the imperfection of human nature and vulnerability through fragmentary depiction or by deliberately disrupting the surface. I mainly draw inspiration from the diversity of Greek history and mythology. Heroism beyond human limits and a variety of mythological actors find their way into my sculptures. My style of expression is based on the classic tradition of well-sculpted bodies, enriched with touches of modernity.”
