About the Hear Nothing gnome

This elegant black gnome is a creation made by artist Ottmar Hörl for the Art Fair Art Karlsruhe in 2005. It pictures a garden elf that hears nothing with both hands covering his ears. The sculpture is one element of the trilogy the Bearers of Secrets: "See nothing, Hear nothing, Say nothing". The body expression states for the Hear Nothing part of the trilogy. The Hear Nothing gnome also comes with Artist signature engraved at the bottom at the back of the left foot. Combine gnomes together and re-create the Bearers of Secrets collection with a set of three. This amusing hear no evil gnome comes with the artist's signature engraved at the bottom back of its left foot. Our gnome art sculpture is a toxic-free, weatherproof, break-proof plastic. Suitable for indoor and outdoor use.  More details on Ottmar Hörl - Hear No Evil Gnome - Black:

Ottmar Hörl was born in 1950 in Nauheim, Germany. He is a notable German artist, art professor, and writer. Not only Hörl studied at the Städelschule in Frankfurt (1975 / 1978), but also at the Academy of Fine Arts in Düsseldorf (1978 / 1981). In 1985 he co-founded the group Fomalhaut, with architects Gabriela Seifert and Götz Stöckmann. In 1999, Hörl became Professor of Fine Arts at the Academy of Fine Arts in Nuremberg. Eventually, he has been president of the Academy of Fine Arts Nuremberg since 2005. A mischievous artist, Hörl’s career has been predominantly about creating public commentary. He used his whimsical sculptures that have a friendly and teasing tone, especially with his gnomes. His work Flying Change staged in Selignstadt in 1994, for instance, placed a thousand blue garden gnomes, smiling and brandishing their middle fingers, all around the city. The intended effect was for the public to take them and move them around, which the townspeople gratefully did. Add a touch of “trendy activism” in your home or garden decor with Hörl’s gnome statues. They are suitable for inside and out and are all engraved with Sculptor signature as part as a Special Edition Collection.
