About Albert Hien
Albert Hien (born in 1956 in Munich, Germany) creates light objects that sometimes seriously and at other times ironically question and comment on the contemporary state of our world. The artist took part in documenta 7 and 8, and since 2001 he is a professor at the Academy of Fine Arts in Munich.
His works have been shown in numerous solo and group exhibitions, including the Kunstmuseum Celle. They are also part of public collections such as the Museum of Contemporary Art in Antwerp and the Städtische Galerie im Lenbachhaus & Kunstbau, Munich.
A plastic work of sculptural art made of wood, stone, ivory, bronze or other metals.
While sculptures from wood, ivory or stone are made directly from the block of material, in bronze casting a working model is prepared at first. Usually, it is made of clay or other easily mouldable materials.
The prime time of sculpture after the Greek and Roman antiquity was the Renaissance. Impressionism gave a new impulse to the sculptural arts. Contemporary artists such as Jorg Immendorf, Andora, and Markus Lupertz also enriched sculptures with outstanding works.
