Paul Wunderlich Sculptures

German, 1927-2010

Paul Wunderlich is a German artist well-known for his Surrealist paintings and erotic sculptures. He was one of the most important members of the Magic Realist circle of artists. While his earliest works represented scenes of oppressive history during World War II in Germany, he later found inspiration in Surrealist artworks with sexual references and fantastic floating forms. Wunderlich studied graphic art at the Landeskunstschule in Hamburg, where he became an art teacher. During that time, he learned printmaking techniques from artists like Emil Nolde and Oskar Kokoschka. Wunderlich also began experimenting with the free-form, Expressionist style of Tachisme, but then he focused on the figurative again. He lived between Hamburg and France until his death. Today, many of his works belong to the collections of the biggest international museums like the Museum of Modern Art in New York, La Bibliothèque nationale in Paris, and the British Museum in London.

An internationally renowned sculptor & painter, Aronson has won acclaim for his interpretation of themes from the Hebrew Talmud and Kabala. His best known works include bronze castings, encaustic paintings, and pastels. His work is included in many important public and private collections, and has been shown in several museum retrospectives around the country. He is considered to be one of the most important 20th century American artists. At twenty-two David Aronson had his first one-man show at New York's Niveau Gallery. The next year, six of his Christological paintings were included in the Fourteen Americans exhibition at Manhattan's Museum of Modern Art where Aronson’s work was included alongside abstract expressionists Arshile Gorky, Robert Motherwell and Isamu Noguchi. In the 1950s, Aronson turned more toward his Jewish heritage for the inspiration for his art. Folklore as well as Kabbalistic and other transcendental writings influenced his work greatly.
