In Roman mythology, Flora is a goddess of flowers and associated with the season of spring. In ancient depictions, Flora is a young woman adorned with flowers and blossom. According to legend, Flora was brought to Rome by Sabine king Titus Tatius (who ruled Rome together with Romulus until his death), where he set up an altar for her. A goddess of vegetation and fertility, she was a goddess of flowers and plants – as the name suggests – as well as earth, grain and agriculture. She was also a goddess of youth and fertility. Similar to Bacchus, she is also a goddess of sensual pleasure and enjoyment, and is considered a patron goddess of prostitutes.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

To mark the 70th anniversary of DIE ZEIT, Markus L\u00fcpertz Hora Skulptur, 2016 was published by Kunstverlag Till Breckner in an edition of 45 copies. The figure “Hora” – Greek for “time” – reflects much more than a “time portrait”: it is a discussion of the fundamental meanings of the term. Thus, the hourglass at the feet of the “Markus L\u00fcpertz Sculpture Hora” symbolises transience, while the pomegranate lying on it is the sign of fertility, continuation and immortality – a contradiction that is able to represent the extremes of time. Above it, the sculpture is figurative, but without a head – because time is superhuman. Other details convey L\u00fcpertz’s message, which can also be found in many other works: the personification of a word in all its facets of meaning. The sculpture was published in an edition of 45 and is 49 cm tall. The artist painted each copy by hand.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Discover the 55 cm edition by Markus L\u00fcpertz from 2020. The sculpture appears in a strictly limited edition of 30 copies. The artist derived the title from Greek mythology: Dionysos is the God of wine, grapes, fertility and ecstasy. L\u00fcpertz’s interpretation resembles the ancient portrayals and sculptures in terms of form and comportment. The feet are positioned hip-width apart, the right arm is raised to shoulder height, holding out a sumptuous bunch of grapes towards the viewer. The left arm rests against the body at elbow height. In its hand, it holds a Kantharos – a drinking vessel for wine – slightly away from the body. Along with ivy vines and vine branches, these are the typical attributes of Dionysos.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Markus L\u00fcpertz’s Heinrich Mann + I = Henry IV is a bronze, handpainted sculpture from 2015 and measures 38.5 x 20 x 17 cm. Bronze, handpainted, signed (monogrammed) and numbered on the plinth, 45 arab. num. copies plus e.a. The sculpture is also presented at Korff Fine Art in Ilmm\u00fcnster and at Galerie Hunold in Greven. Markus L\u00fcpertz presents his \u201cI\u201d in relation to the writer Heinrich Mann and the title character \u201cYoung Henry of Navarre\u201d from Mann\u2019s novel of the same name. The sculpture is a fusion of three personalities and thus a gathering of visual art and literature as well as a unification of reality and fiction.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

ARTISTS Markus L\u00fcpertz ARTIST MARKUS L\u00dcPERTZ Art is everything we don\u2019t understand. Markus L\u00dcPERTZ (*born in 1941 in Liberec\/ Czech Republic) is one of the best-known contemporary German artists and representatives of neo-expressionism. Along with Georg Baselitz, A.R. Penck, Sigmar Polke, Gerhard Richter and J\u00f6rg Immendorff, he joined the ranks of top German post-war artists on the national and international art scene. He is described by the media as the \u201cPainter Prince\u201d. Born in 1941 in Bohemian Reichenberg, Markus L\u00fcpertz looks back on an established portfolio of work spanning decades. His art is characterised by major projects locally and abroad, along with close contact with influential public personas. He was head of the D\u00fcsseldorf Art Academy for 20 years. His subjects range from confronting German history to Greek mythology. The artist’s works are found in private collections as well as national and international museums (including the Pinakothek der Moderne in Munich, Moderna Museet Stockholm, Mus\u00e9e d\u2019Art Moderne de la Ville de Paris in Paris, the National Gallery in Berlin, at the Palais des Beaux-Arts in Brussels).

In ancient depictions, Flora is a young woman adorned with flowers and blossom. According to legend, Flora was brought to Rome by Sabine king Titus Tatius (who ruled Rome together with Romulus until his death), where he set up an altar for her. A goddess of vegetation and fertility, she was a goddess of flowers and plants – as the name suggests – as well as earth, grain and agriculture. She was also a goddess of youth and fertility. Similar to Bacchus, she is also a goddess of sensual pleasure and enjoyment, and is considered a patron goddess of prostitutes.

The figure “Hora” – Greek for “time” – reflects much more than a “time portrait”: it is a discussion of the fundamental meanings of the term. Thus, the hourglass at the feet of the “Markus L\u00fcpertz Sculpture Hora” symbolises transience, while the pomegranate lying on it is the sign of fertility, continuation and immortality – a contradiction that is able to represent the extremes of time. Above it, the sculpture is figurative, but without a head – because time is superhuman. Other details convey L\u00fcpertz’s message, which can also be found in many other works: the personification of a word in all its facets of meaning. The sculpture was published in an edition of 45 and is 49 cm tall. The artist painted each copy by hand.

L\u00fcpertz’s interpretation resembles the ancient portrayals and sculptures in terms of form and comportment. The feet are positioned hip-width apart, the right arm is raised to shoulder height, holding out a sumptuous bunch of grapes towards the viewer. The left arm rests against the body at elbow height. In its hand, it holds a Kantharos – a drinking vessel for wine – slightly away from the body. Along with ivy vines and vine branches, these are the typical attributes of Dionysos.

L\u00fcpertz’s interpretation resembles the ancient portrayals and sculptures in terms of form and comportment. The feet are positioned hip-width apart, the right arm is raised to shoulder height, holding out a sumptuous bunch of grapes towards the viewer. The left arm rests against the body at elbow height. In its hand, it holds a Kantharos – a drinking vessel for wine – slightly away from the body. Along with ivy vines and vine branches, these are the typical attributes of Dionysos.
