| Publisher Description: His monumental sculptures that dominate the landscape have given Erich Engelbrecht (1928-2011) a place in the history of modern sculpture. His method of drawing images plastically in the space, and of using these drawings transformed into solid bodies to occupy whole landscapes, is unparalleled. The enigma balanced between representationality and the abstract, the multiplicity of meaning, which invites freely poetic titles, is essential to the unique charm of Erich Engelbrecht's visual work. During his search for a place in France where he could present his large sculptures, he discovered in 2000 the open, meadow-like land, with the ch teau tucked into a piece of forest behind it. In the park of Ch teau des Fougis, 29 of his artworks communicate with each other in such a relaxed way that visitors are prompted to think and to enjoy. |
