Anton Josef D'Antios Trcka

Anton Hiller, Gehende, 1943/1944 One of three known casts. The other two are located in the collection of Stiftung Maria und Fritz König, Skulpturenmuseum im Hofberg, Landshut, and in the garden of Städtische Galerie im Lenbachhaus und Kunstbau, Munich.The artist Anton Hiller pertains to the most important representatives of the Munich School of sculpture of the mid 1920s. Influenced by the Neoclassicism of his teacher Hermann Hahn at first, Hiller's artistic search is characterised by the endeavour to overcome traditional notions of sculpture and to attain the archetype of man. In its reduced austerity, "Gehende" heralds exactly this awakening on the threshold of figuration and abstraction.
