Die grosse Illusion

"The Liebieghaus Skulpturensammlung dedicates a major special exhibition to the fascinating tradition of (hyper)realistic sculpture. From 1 October 2014 to 1 March 2015, 'True to Life. Veristic Sculpture and the Engineering of Illusion' offers mesmerizing insights into the endeavors undertaken by artists of different stylistic epochs throughout more than four thousand years that were aimed at sculptural representations of man which are as faithful as possible. The confrontation of fifty-two works from different centuries conveys a unique and comprehensive impression of this art-historical phenomenon. The visitor will come upon extraordinarily lifelike sculptures of an imposing, irritating and at the same time shocking character. The show sheds light on a variety of techniques for ensuring illusionistic effects such as the use of real hair, glass eyes, and lavish painting"--Provided by publisher.
