    University Library

    Two portrait collage works in mixed media with colorful abstract acrylic painting. Left: "Homage to Simone de Beauvoir" with this text: "The entire history of women: Made by men? Primarily, mostly, but not only. Ever since time immemorial there have been matriarchies, where all power is organized through the descent of the maternal line, and religious beliefs are traced back to a beldam or great goddess. But these were archaeological cultures. Thus, women must continue to work intensely for their liberation ..." On the right, the "Homage to Hugo von Hoffmannsthal" with the following text: "When the development of imagination turns against fate, does that break what we plan - or do new possibilities not also arise? And is not also the value of rational thinking for visions to be questioned?"

    Talk

    Studio Building/ The Collection of Plaster Casts

    Three sculptures placed side by side in the white-washed vaulted basement of the Studiobuilding; due to the viewing angle, the leftmost figure, a cast of the ‘Capitoline Venus,’ appears to be the largest. The other two casts represent ‘Eirene carrying the infant Plutos on her arm’ and ‘Ares Borghese.’ All three sculptures are visible from the head to about the knee.
