Gerhard Marcks (1889 Berlin - 1981 Burgbrohl) (F)
'Gürtelbinderin', 1958, Bronze, braun patiniert, Höhe 55 cm, im Guss monogrammiert, Gießerstempel 'Guss. Barth Bln. Mariendorf', Gussnummer M, partiell leichte Kratzer, partiell leichte Korrosionsspuren

Die römisch anmutende Gürtelbinderin lebt geradezu von ihrer Geradlinigkeit. Aufrecht auf einer quadratischen Plinthe stehend, wird sie in ihrem Gewand gezeigt, in einem Moment kurz davor, dieses an der Hüfte zusammen zu binden. Die Falten des altertümlichen Kleides werden mit feinen Linien dargestellt, nah ist es am Körper anliegend. Das ruhige Gesicht wird von zusammengelegten Haaren umfasst. Der Künstler spielt mit minimalen Kurven und der gleichzeitig rechtwinkligen Haltung der Arme und Hände - bereit den Gürtel zu binden. Marcks hatte eine ganze Sammlung von eigenen Hand- und Fußzeichnungen, die sicherlich sein Formverständnis für die schlussendliche Ausführung dieser skulpturalen Körperteile unterstützt haben.




Gerhard Marcks (1889 Berlin - 1981 Burgbrohl) (F)
'Gürtelbinderin', 1958, bronze, brown patinated, height 55 cm, monogrammed in the casting, foundry stamp 'Guss. Barth Bln. Mariendorf', casting number M, partially light scratches, partially slight traces of corrosion

The Roman-looking belt-tying woman lives virtually from her straightness. Standing upright on a square plinth, she is shown in her garment, at one moment about to tie it at the hip. The folds of the ancient dress are depicted with fine lines, close it is to the body. The serene face is embraced by folded hair. The artist plays with minimal curves and the simultaneous right-angled posture of the arms and hands - ready to tie the belt. Marcks had a whole collection of his own hand and foot drawings, which certainly supported his understanding of form towards the eventual execution of these sculptural body parts.
