About the Item
Prometheus Freed is a sculpture by Guatemalan artist Walter Peter Brenner. It is a tribute to the hero of the Greek mythology, Prometheus, who granted human the ability to think. Prometheus had pity on human because they were unable to think for themselves. He therefore stole the fire of reason from Mount Olympus and gave it to mankind. Prometheus was punished for this theft by Zeus and condemned to a life of suffering in exile on a rock island.
Prometheus Freed is a tribute to the freedom that is achieved through struggle and loyalty to one's values. The sculpture is a celebration of integrity and the triumph of the human spirit.
This artwork is available in a limited edition of 8 + 4 A.P., each signed and numbered.

Walter Peter Brenner
The beauty and the grandeur of human form are at the heart of Walter Peter Brenner’s work. The sculptor has for 17 years been developing works which go against the dogmas of his time and which exalt, by their nobility, an heroic sense of life. In his sculptures there are references to antiquity, be it in the themes (Prometheus, Hercules, Atlas...) or in the bodies of his works (athletic, powerful, noble). The artist has created several monumental commissions for private and public spaces, the best known of which is the 10-metre-high terracotta sculpture «The Colossus of Inmaco», exhibited in Guatemala City. “Romantic heroism is what really represents my work. A heroic sense of life, a sense that man is capable of shaping and modelling his own destiny. A sense of hope.’’
