Lot 345 | Fritz Klimsch
(1870 Frankfurt/M. - 1960 Freiburg i. B.)
"Rastende". Originaltitel
Bronze, in differenzierten, goldbraunen bis dunkelbraunen Tönen patiniert, 1950. MonoGrösse "FK" in Ligatur. Gießerstempel "H. NOACK BERLIN". Wvz. Braun 228. Klimsch gilt als einer der bedeutenden deutschen Bildhauer der Moderne, die sich besonders der Aktplastik widmeten. Er studierte 1886-1894 bei Fritz Schaper an der Berliner Akademie. Während einer Paris-Reise im Abschlussjahr lernte er die Werke Auguste Rodins und Aristide Maillos kennen, die ihn nachhaltig beeinflussten. Mit Liebermann und Leistikow gründete er 1898 die Berliner Sezession; 1913 trat er zur Freien Sezession über. 1912 wurde er Mitglied der Akademie der Künste in Berlin; 1921-35 lehrte er als Professor an der Berliner Hochschule für Bildende Künste. Die in sich geschlossene, komplentative und zugleich kraftvoll komponierte Aktfigur "Rastende" ist als eine der letzten Arbeiten Klimschs eine originäre Neuschöpfung des 80-jährigen Bildhauers. H. 36,5 cm.
