Special Auction: Garden Sculptures

Garden Sphere

Fritz Koenig - Mona II
Bronze. 1971
Hight with socket: c. 250 cm (98.4 in)
Estimate: € 40 000-50 000

Munich, 5 April, 2011, (kk) - While New York is still looking for a new location for Fritz Koenig’s sculpture "The Sphere", which once stood in front of the World Trade Center as a symbol for world peace, the caryatid sculpture "Mona II2 by the same artist and from the same year can now be bought in an auction in Munich.

On occasion of the first spring auction at Ketterer Kunst, this bronze, as well as around 30 other sculptures will be auctioned in the Special Auction Garden Sculptures on 7 May.

Fritz Koenig’s bronze from 1971 impresses with its sole presence, c. 2,5 m (c. 98.4 in) tall and weighing approximately 250 kg it is definitely no lightweight. However, it still has a filigree appearance and almost seems to hover, the blossom-like bowl stretches upwards on the narrowing stem like an oversized flower. The exclusive eye-catcher will enter the race with an estimate of € 40 000-50 000.

Pablo Atchugarry
Senza titolo. 2006
Sculpture. White marble on black granite base
Unique piece
Height: 130 cm (51.1 in)
Estimate: € 30.000-40.000

Pablo Atchugarry’s white marble sculpture from 2006 can be obtained for € 30 000-40 000. There is nothing about this fragile piece that hints at the enormous expenditure of energy and tough material involved in the creation of this amorphic masterpiece. Works by the Biennale di Venezia participant are coined by an unmatched intensity and visual poetry and sensibility, which is why they are not only sought-after on the international auction market, additionally, they adorn numerous European public spaces.

Michael Croissant Kopf. 1989
Bronce, welded
Height: ca. 115 cm
Estimate: € 12 000-15 000

Other highlights in the garden sculpture auction will be Gianpietro Carlesso’s "Decostruzione XXIV" (estimate: € 18 000-24 000) and Erich Hauser’s "22/70" (estimate: € 15 000-20 000), as well as works by Michael Croissant, Josef Staub, Michael Schönholtz and and Laszlo Szabo.

Gianpietro Carlesso
Decostruzione XXIV. 1994
Plastic, Lasa Marble
120 x 50 x 48cm
Estimate: € 18 000-24 000
