Jörg W. Schirmer is a german sculptor, who works and lives in Essen.Large feet are his trademark, the reminiscence of his years of study, following the context of "the perspective of an ant", a term being new invented. Repeatedly the artist experiments with hewed, grained, polished surfaces and combines them into his bronzes. Schirmer, who is a master-graduate of Prof. Markus Lüpertz, one of the most renowned sculptors of the contemporary art world, creates an impressive interaction between the venerable ancient bronze and his modern avant-garde characterized art. For some years now, Jörg W. Schirmer is to be credited to have taken the artistic bronze casting into the 21st century.
