Galerie Löhrl, Mönchengladbach. Hans Braun Collection, Baden-Württemberg (acquired from the above in 2010). "WWhat I want [..] from my sculptures is that they provide the impetus or starting point for everything else. Hence, it is not only the figure that is important, but starting from that, it can convey all kinds of things [..], moods, feelings, ideas." Stephan Balkenhol, quoted from: Dirk Teuber, in: Kritisches Lexikon der Gegenwartskunst, Munich 1995, p. 2. Characteristic work in very good condition. Slightly dusty in places. Some minimal signs of rubbing.
