A Facsimile by the Theologian and Artist<\/p>\n
The genesis of images is a central aspect of the work of the Munich-based theologian and artist Thomas Lehnerer (b. Munich, 1955; d. ibid., 1995). In drawings and sculptures, as well as in spatial and conceptual works, the production of images creates a counter-world to our own lives. By transferring fundamental experiences of human existence into art, Lehnerer creates an equivocal, anthropological space for observation and reflection. The artist\u2019s book Grott<\/em>, published in 1986, contains ambiguous elements. All drawings are positioned on the right page. In the not yet dried state, a double image was formed on the left side, which relativizes the \u201cprimary image.\u201d The depictions of animals, people, and the environment were drawn nearly without interruption from a single line. In this style of continuous movement, the overall image can be traced back to its beginning. For Lehnerer, it was important to understand human (self-)consciousness from the perspective of the history of evolution, since there are countless models of thought and belief within this narrative. Grott<\/em> refers in the title, as well as in the drawings, to the charged relationship between the earthly and the spiritual.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":683,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[2208,2213],"product_tag":[5395],"class_list":{"0":"post-953","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_cat-all-books","7":"product_cat-painting","8":"product_tag-thomas-lehnerer","10":"first","11":"instock","12":"taxable","13":"shipping-taxable","14":"purchasable","15":"product-type-simple"},"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
