Wawaholz, painted. literature: Galerie Löhrl (ed.), "Stephan Balkenhol. Heads", exh. cat., Mönchengladbach 1991, cat. no. 18. // Stephan Balkenhol's "Kleine Kopfsäule" exemplifies his distinctive approach to figurative sculpture, presenting a carved male head atop a slender cylindrical column in painted Wawa wood. The naturalistic flesh tones and brown hair of the head contrast with the muted green-gray of the supporting column, creating a tension between human presence and architectural form. Balkenhol's deliberate retention of tool marks and understated expressions reflects his commitment to a quiet, unpretentious figuration that resists the dominance of abstraction in postwar German sculpture.

What is Found Object?
A found object is a term used to describe a man-made or natural object, or a fragment of one, that an artist discovers or purchases and keeps for inspiration or as a work of art. The artist may also modify the object or incorporate it into a collage or assemblage, transforming it into a new piece of art.
