 | | Gerhard Marcks is Germany's best-known, and perhaps its unluckiest living sculptor. |
 | | A hit of the show was Marcks's Holy Spring, a naked, hopeful-looking boy modeled in memory of his son, who was killed at the front. |
 | | Marcks spends his mornings sculpting in gypsum, which he likes better than clay because "it is so uglyits brutal white color shows up the weaknesses." In the afternoons he goes home to the two-room apartment he shares with his wife, and rests. |
