About Speak No Evil - Red gnome by Ottmar Horl

This gnome is part of the trilogy the Bearers of Secrets: See nothing, Hear nothing, Say nothing”. German sculptor Ottmar Hörl created this good-looking gnome in 2006 for an art event in Germany. It represents a bearded dwarf with both hands covering his eyes. The Speak No Evil in Red gnome body language illustrates the Speak No Evil in white part of the trilogy. Initially edited only in black, yellow and red for the original exhibit, this Speak No Evil gnome now exists multiple shades. This amusing Speak no evil gnome comes with the artist's signature engraved at the bottom at the 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 Speak No Evil - Red gnome by Ottmar Horl:

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.
