Star Sculpture

Von Stumm¹s choice of media and instinct for experimentation is deeply rooted in his background, in a childhood and adolescence spent at the foot of the Alps with long winters, ice and rocks. His love of steel, in particular, is intertwined with his family history: ancestors on his father¹s side were blacksmiths and steel factory owners for 250 years and his mother's family owned a glass factory in the Czech Republic. Johannes von Stumm¹s unique combination of three different materials has attracted public and critical acclaim, both in Britain and abroad. His startlingly original sculpture, which engages continually with risk and a defiance of accepted laws, joins metal, stone and glass to create abstract or reduced figurative works in which apparently conflicting materials exist in complex harmony.
Von Stumm is fusing the strong and the fragile, the solid and the liquid, the dark and the transparent.
 I hope that the viewer will sense the carefully constructed balance between all these parts. None can be without the other ones. We all juggle many different aspects in our life trying to create more or less successfully a perfect harmony.
