ABOUT
Richard W Lange (German,1879 ~ 1944) a visionary sculptor, carved his name into the annals of art history with innovative works that bridged classical aesthetics with modern sensibilities. Born in 1879, his sculptures bore witness to the tumultuous shifts of the 20th century, capturing the essence of human emotion and experience. Lange's mastery lay in his ability to infuse stone and metal with life, evoking empathy and contemplation in viewers. His sculptures, often characterized by fluid lines and profound symbolism, spoke volumes about the human condition. Despite his untimely demise in 1944, Lange's legacy endures as a testament to the enduring power of artistic expression.
