Harald Klingelhöller
Harald Klingelhöller is a German artist born in 1954. He studied at the Kunstakademie Düsseldorf under Joseph Beuys in the late 1970s. Klingelhöller works in a variety of mediums including sculpture, installation, and drawing. His work often explores themes related to architecture, space, and the body, and he frequently incorporates found materials into his pieces. Klingelhöller's works have been exhibited internationally, including at documenta IX in Kassel, Germany, and the Venice Biennale.
One of his most well-known works is the sculpture "Große Fensterfigur" ("Large Window Figure"), which was installed in the German Pavilion at the 1993 Venice Biennale. The sculpture consists of a large, distorted figure made of steel and glass, which appears to be climbing out of the building's windows. It is a powerful and thought-provoking work that encourages the viewer to consider the relationship between the human body and the built environment.
