Is there any website which shows the work of a sculpturer named "Messersschmitt" (I think the spelling is correct) who in later life when suffering from Dementia produced many pieces of distorted faces saying that these distortions overcame the demons within his head? |

Hello. The sculptor is Franz Xaver Messerschmidt (1736-1783). A web site called "Franz Xaver Messerschmidt's heads" has a gallery of the artist's sculptures: http://www.limmat.ch/schmid/fxm/gallery.html The main page is at: http://www.limmat.ch/schmid/fxm/index.html There is another gallery on the web page of Norbert Schmitt: http://www.norbertschmitt.de/messerschmidt/koepfe.htm Biographical information is available courtesy of the web page Fine Arts in Hungary: http://keptar.demasz.hu/keptar/english/m/messersc/ Here is an entry from artcyclopedia.com about Messerschmidt: http://www.artcyclopedia.com/artists/messerschmidt_franz_xaver.html search strategy: messerschmidt, faces I hope this helps. |
