Dieter Kränzlein

Born in 1962, Dieter Kränzlein trained as a stone sculptor (1982 and 1985) and was a pupil of Franz Dakáy. He has since exhibited in Germany, Switzerland, France and Canada.

Dieter mainly works with shell limestone from Würzburg, as well as crystalline marble from Norway. With precisely placed incisions, notches, layers and countersinks, he creates dynamic and inspired sculptures. From a raw and static material, Dieter gives it movement and the typical attributes of "hard and heavy" stone fade away. In the works of Dieter Kränzlein, the imaginary force evoked by matter is central. Its grids and cyclical figures on limestone emphasize a linear and graphic quality such that the material appears light and floating.
