Georg Herold: da wo die …: Kat. Kunstmuseum Bonn Details
About the Author Georg Herold, born 1947 is a German sculptor. He studied from 1977 until 1983 in Hamburg with Sigmar Polke after he received a training in GDR as a blacksmith. In the early 1980s he exhibited together with Albert and Maruks Oehlen as well as Werner Büttner and Martin Kippenberger. He took distance to the other so-called Hetzler boys and worked on a profound and personal work with an ironic and critical approach. The last years sees more and more sculptures which benefit from his experiments with materials like wooden bars cloth-covered and sprayed or lacquered which are now shifting as casts into hard materials as alumium. Georg Herold’s work is shown worldwide, amongst others at: Kunsthalle Zürich (1989) Museum of Modern Art San Francisco (1990), Kunstverein Köln (1990), Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam (1993), Kunsthalle Zurich (1999), Kunsthalle Baden-Baden (2005), Kunstverein Hannover (2006), Kunstverein Heilbronn (2010), Museum Brandhorst Munich (2012), and Kunstmuseum Bonn (2017). He participated at documenta IX in Kassel 1992 and 1997 Skulptur.Projekte Münster. Read more
