Trubkoun Kurt Gebauer
Trubkoun
The sculpture belongs to a so-called „trubkoun“ series, in which the author solves his lifelong interest in the human figure. The complete reduction of the figure to a lapidary shape achieved a very impressive and for him typically humorous and grotesque result.
The statue of Trubkouna was made according to the author's exact instructions by a private company Eurointermetall s. r. o. of Lucie and Dalibor Kamenský in Rýmařov, who kindly lent the sculpture. (For example, they also made sculptures of Stanislav Diviš's flowers, which were on display at his exhibition last year in Kutná Hora.)
