Figures of Presence and Absence","description":"Walter Moroder is one of the most outstanding sculptors of our time. His life-size full-body figures, which reject any form of imitation of human existence, move between stillness, waiting, and silence – thus unfolding an intense effect of presence and absence. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis monograph offers for the first time a comprehensive insight into more than three decades of his work. With a clear structure in 16 chapters and impressive large-format illustrations of his works, it invites readers to discover Moroder's work in its full depth. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHighlights of the book\u003c\/strong\u003e: \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- Comprehensive monograph on 30 years of artistic creation \u003cbr\u003e- Life-size sculptures full of existential expressive power \u003cbr\u003e- 16 chapters with a focused overview and art-historical context \u003cbr\u003e- Large-format illustrations and high-quality book design\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAn indispensable book for collectors*, art enthusiasts, and all who appreciate the special expression of contemporary sculpture. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWalter Moroder (*1963) comes from a renowned family of sculptors in Gröden (Italy). In his training, he went through all stages of the craft and artistic tradition of the region, only to leave them behind after studying at the Art Academy in Munich (graduating in 1988) and making a significant reorientation. His sculptural engagement with the forms of the human body confirms his affinity for classical sculpture, yet combined with a distinctly postmodern visual thinking beyond figurative, abstract, or neo-expressive conventions.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMarkus Klammer is an editor, art critic, and curator of numerous exhibitions of modern and contemporary art, with publications and texts on Heinz Gappmayr, Rémy Zaugg, Gerhard Merz, Michele Bernardi, Hugo Vallazza (selection).
