What is the New Leipzig School?
The New Leipzig School is a movement in modern German painting that represents the third generation of artists associated with the Hochschule für Grafik und Buchkunst Leipzig. This movement reflects the post-reunification landscape of Germany. Unlike the first generation of Leipzig painters, the third generation does not have clear, defined characteristics or messages. Instead, their work blends figurative and abstract elements, placing a strong emphasis on creativity and experimentation.

Marble is a rare and expensive metamorphic rock composed of recrystallized limestone. It has been used for centuries to create statues, decorative floors, and walls due to its translucency and durability. Marble is ideal for both free-standing statues and relief sculptures. When carving, the material is chiseled away in small increments to achieve the desired form.
Found objects (or objet trouvé in French) are everyday items that an artist finds and incorporates into a work of art. While collectors have displayed aesthetically pleasing objects for centuries, modern art often uses objects that originally had non-artistic functions, such as recycled or repurposed materials.
