In vielen Religionen wurde die Gottheit als zweigeschlechtliches Wesen vorgestellt, und in Platons "Symposion" erzählt Aristophanes den Mythos vom ursprünglich doppelköpfigen zweigeschlechtlichen Menschen. Von der altchinesischen ying-yang-Lehre und den Experimenten der Alchimisten bis zur modernen Tiefenpsychologie und Biogenetik reihen sich die Spekulationen über die Trennung und Wiedervereinigung des männlichen und des weiblichen Prinzips.
Günther Stimpfl hat diese elementare Bipolarität, die Dualität der Existenz, die geistig-körperliche Ambivalenz und die Verschmelzung zweier Körper mit seinem solche Wechselbeziehungen thematisierenden Idol auf eine strenge, abstrakte Formel gebracht.

About Günther Stimpfl
Günther Stimpfl's rise to the art elite began in Vienna. There he was a master student of Fritz Wotruba and Joannis Avramidis at the Academy of Fine Arts between 1964 and 1972. From 1972 to 1984, he attracted attention with designs for mobile wind and water objects. Since 1985, Günther Stimpfl has been working as a freelance sculptor.
His static-figurative large and small sculptures, which have attracted great attention in exhibitions in the art centres of Europe, are today highlights of important public and private collections.
Günther Stimpfl reflects the human need to express its spiritual world with visible symbols through sculptures that are modern and archaic. The weightless elegance of his impressive works of art – like the idols of lost cultures – stimulates the mind and imagination and fulfils the human longing for beauty that transcends time.
Marble powder is polymer-bonded. Artificial marble is characterised by a fine white surface that appears very similar to marble.
Term for an art object (sculpture, installation), which is produced in multiple copies in a limited and numbered edition according to the artist‘s will.
Artist's multiples have been called the most accessible and affordable art on the market.
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.
