Carsten Eggers (born 18 May 1957) is a German sculptor and painter. There are about 20 realistic bronze sculptures of his in northern Germany and the Netherlands. His best-known works are a bronze bust of Rudi Carrell and a larger-than-life monument of boxing legend Max Schmeling. == Life == Carsten Eggers, the son of the impressionist painter Richard Eggers, was born in Stade, in Lower Saxony, and grew up in the town of Jork'' in the ドイツ語:Altes Land'' region, an area of reclaimed marshland on the Elbe downstream from Hamburg. Deciding against an academic career he studied all aspects of painting with his father, an accomplished artist who in 1975 was awarded the Knight's Cross of the Order of Merit of the Federal Republic of Germany (''ドイツ語:Bundesverdienstkreuz am Bande'') for his life's work. At the age of only 17, Carsten Eggers designed the coat of arms of the municipality of Jork. In 1979 he had his first exhibition of paintings, in his home town of Jork, together with his father.〔 After 1980 he turned to sculpture, studying under Professor Franz Rotter in Cuxhaven, and from 1983 he studied Sculpture under Karl Heinz Türk at the ''Freie Kunstakademie'' (Free Art Academy) in Nürtingen. Defying the usual conventions, Eggers kept himself to himself, shunned the arts "establishment", and was not a member of any artists' associations. Since 1991 Carsten Eggers has lived and worked at a former farm in Nottensdorf in the rural district of Stade. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Carsten Eggers」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
