Stephan Balkenhol
1957
Janus. 2007.
Bronze, in colors.
With the engraved signature and number, as well as the foundry mark, on the right lower leg. Typographically labelled with the details of the work on a label on the underside of the plinth. Copy 13 of 24. Height: 52.3 cm (20.5 in). Plinth: 43,5 x 30,1 cm (17,1 x 11,8 x 0,1 in).
Cast at Kunstbronsgieterij de Groeve, Merelbeke. [AW].
• Stephan Balkenhol’s figures: Reduced to the essence of the human – free of history and burden.
• His preferred protagonist: the stoic “everyman” in black pants and a white shirt.
• Like the Roman god Janus, this sculpture arouses curiosity and imagination through its austere reservedness.

PROVENANCE: Deweer Art Gallery, Otegem (with the gallery label on the underside of the plinth).
Galerie Löhrl, Mönchengladbach.
Private collection, North Rhine-Westphalia (acquired from the above around 2008).

In very good condition.
