Wolfgang Thiel (b. Zweibrücken, 1952, lives and works in Plochingen) is a sculptor who makes figurative work. He is especially interested in the southern German tradition of colorfully painted sculpture, which he seeks to bring into the twenty-first century. His experimental handling of various genres and materials suggests a researcher's mind. Switching between different materials is key to Thiel's approach because their particular characteristics demand his constant attention. Å playful aspect is essential to all his works, which include large-format sculptures in public settings (more than thirty have been installed in Germany) as well as sculptural garden landscapes, stage designs, and costumes. The opulent wide-format book containing almost three hundred illustrations offers a representative overview of Wolfgang Thiel's oeuvre and includes the first complete chronological catalogue raisonné of his works in wood.
