Hofnarr

This striking sculpture depicts a whimsical jester, exuding a sense of joy and playfulness. The figure is elegantly posed, with one leg lifted in a lively dance, showcasing the fluidity of movement. The jester's costume features playful elements, including a pointed hat adorned with bells and a tattered design that suggests both mischief and charm. The mixed materials and finish evoke a vintage patina, adding depth and character, making this piece an eye-catching centerpiece.
This delightful sculpture can be a perfect addition to various interior spaces. It would work exceptionally well in a modern or eclectic living room, bringing a touch of whimsy and artistic flair. Additionally, it could enhance the charm of a cozy reading nook or serve as a conversational piece in a foyer or hallway. Placing it on a pedestal or a low table will allow it to stand out and invite admiration from guests.

The sculptures by Sven Hartmann as if they were bronze. However, the material is paper. The artist has been working with this technique for several decades and has perfected it in his way. The plastics are hard and insensitive. There are individual figures, installations or whole shop window decorations. In earlier years, Sven Hartmann has made surviving figures from corrugated cardboard, which were used as scenes for theatre and television or as decorations.
