Pair of plastic figures (garden dwarfs), painted white/black, on metal pedestal,

The plastic figure was developed by invitation of the Munich Opera Festival in 1998 for an installation of 3800 figures at the square in front of the Opera house. Because of  roughly 2000 pieces that were stolen and partly (unsigned pieces) sold to prominent Munich figures in support for needy artists of the Werner-Friedmann-Foundation, the “Welcome Dwarf” became the darling and the talk of the town in Munich.
