+- 28 kg // Alter Ego (2 parts) by Jörg Immendorff is a bronze sculpture featuring two intricately designed figures that interact in a complex, introspective pose. One figure, resembling a stylized, seated monkey, holds a mirror-like bronze form, facing its own reflection. The textured surface of the sculpture and the verdigris patina enhance its tactile and aged appearance, giving it a raw, primal quality. This work likely explores themes of self-reflection and identity, capturing a dialogue between the self and the other as suggested by the title Alter Ego. Immendorff's style often engages with existential and philosophical themes, inviting viewers to ponder the nature of duality and self-awareness.

What is appropriation?
Appropriation in art involves using pre-existing images or objects with little or no modification. This technique has played a significant role across various art forms, including visual arts, music, performance, and literature. In visual arts, appropriation refers to the practice of adopting, sampling, recycling, or borrowing elements—or even entire forms—of existing visual culture, integrating them into new works to create meaning or critique.
