Detailed description
Sculpture "Loop 38 - Gold Edition" (2015)
Sonja Edle von Hoessle's "Infinite Loops" are created from precisely shaped steel parts that unfold in deep space and, depending on the angle of view, become shapeshifters that unfold a completely different effect each time. Since 2012, the sculpture "Infinite Loop V" has adorned the Würzburg cityscape. The steel sculpture shown here, with its gold-plated surface, is reminiscent of a filigree piece of jewellery.
Steel sculpture, 2015. 24-carat pure gold leaf gilding, primed with rust protection. Edition: 7 copies, numbered and signed on the certificate. Height 53 cm, width 43 cm, depth 20 cm.

About Sonja Edle von Hoeßle
Everything is in a state of flux: in Sonja Edle von Hoeßle's oil paintings, colour seems to flow, the element of water is literally palpable. The viewer can somehow sense nature and landscapes, but as in a dream, the contours remain unclear.
The paintings with their relief-like surfaces appear dynamic and organic, almost alive. For this visual effect, the artist developed her very individual painting technique, in which she applies several layers of oil paint to the canvas and literally modulates the thick application of paint with a palette knife and knife.
In addition to painting, Sonja Edle von Hoeßle, born in 1960, is also a sculptor. She studied visual communication at the University of Applied Sciences in Mainz and Würzburg and has been presenting her work regularly nationally and internationally since 1996.
Term for an art object (sculpture, installation) that, according to the artist’s intention, is produced in multiple copies within a limited and numbered edition.
Multiples enable the "democratization" of art by making the work accessible and affordable for a wider audience.
A plastic work of sculptural art made of wood, stone, ivory, bronze or other metals.
While sculptures made of wood, ivory, or stone are carved directly from the material block, 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.
