For the past several months Dieter Erhard of Art Center Seadrift has been working to install a significant art display at the monastery St. Anton in the city of Forchheim, Germany. The monastery’s history will be displayed on acrylic plates on sandstone heads, dating from 5000 BC, acquired after recent excavation.
The art piece will include one side of biblical text, selected by the Padre Provinzial Hipp from the Redemptionist Brotherhood and local church member’s words engraved on a plexiglass plate. Three plazas on 3-foot bases, four feet high, will reflect the themes of Easter, Passover, and Christmas.
