Summary
Lynn Chadwick is one of the pioneering sculptors of British post-war modernism. The artist's world of motifs developed from abstractions of human, animal and architectonic elements, including his now virtually iconic 'Beasts' in which existential questions and an uncanny sense of humour come together. Chadwick captured the spirit of the times in his sculptures: they illustrate a widely described mixture of civilizational fatigue, utopian faith in progress and existential anxiety that was characteristic for those years. This catalogue is the first comprehensive study in the German-speaking region on Lynn Chadwick, whose oeuvre is also exemplarily examined in relation to the work of two major German sculptors: Hans Uhlmann and Katja Strunz.
