Overview

The Representative of Humanity: Experiencing Rudolf Steiner's Group Sculpture through Drawing gives an introduction to a great work of art created by Rudolf Steiner and Edith Maryon. Saved from the fire which destroyed the first Goetheanum building, the sculpture now stands in the second Goetheanum as a poignant memory of the lost building and as an example of a new living style of art born out of anthroposophy. The drawings are by Manuela Angel, Louise van Blommestein, Caroline Chanter, Christine Cologna, Ernst Georg Haller, Gwenola Hemlin, Christian Hitsch, Valerie Jacobs, Van James, Joachim Karsten, Arne Klingborg, J. Georg Müller, Bettina Müller, Georg Nemes, Heinrich Roemlein, Melanie Stoye, Veronika Thiersch, Peter A. Wolf, Margarita Woloshina, and Natalya Yeshchenko. ""I have often mentioned the fact that a figure of the archetypal human form, which one can also speak of as the Christ, and which will have Lucifer on the one side and Ahriman on the other, will stand in an important position in our [Goetheanum] building. What is concentrated in the Christ figure will be sep-arated out, divided, in as much as it can be divided, anew into Lucifer and Ahriman - what is united sculpturally in the one figure we make musical, so to speak, by creating a melody out of it: Christ-Lucifer-Ahriman."" -- Rudolf Steiner, Lecture of July 31, 1915, CW 162
