We're losing the institutional memory with all these people leaving," says librarian Fred Stoss of the State University of New York at Buffalo, who cochairs the environment task force of the American Library Association. No museum in Germany devoted to the art of the Middle Ages would present an exhibition that includes contemporary imitations of works by Veit Stoss (1447/48-1533) and Tilman Riemenschneider (1468-1531), two of the most significant sculptors of the Late Gothic period, without a corresponding reference. Mary's Cathedral, the magnificence on every surface, the golden stars on a heavenly nighttime blue-sky ceiling, the central crucifix, the reredos at the High Altar created by Veit Stoss between 1477 and 1489, produce a sense of beatific calm mixed with awe. |
