Five-axis milling robot and PLEXIGLAS® instead of chisel and a block of marble: an Austrian polymer processor reproduced the most well-known sculpture in art history – Michelangelo’s David.
Dietrich Förster specializes in public art. In an interview, the sculptor explains how he develops his ideas and the role suitable materials such as PLEXIGLAS® play.
The Nibelungenfestspiele (Nibelung festival) delights an audience of several thousand enthusiasts every year at the historical location in front of the Worms Cathedral. PLEXIGLAS® is almost always part of the stage setting of the different productions.
Artist Dietrich Förster went searching for the right material to find out how sheets of paper can learn to fly. His artwork entitled “Transfer” appears to be made of paper, when in fact it’s made of PLEXIGLAS®.
