Arno Breker, a German sculptor, gained recognition for his public sculptures during the Nazi era, which were celebrated as a contrast to what was considered “degenerate art.” He was appointed the official state sculptor and was excused from military duties. One of his well-known works, Die Partei, stood as a representation of the Nazi Party’s essence outside the Reich Chancellery. Following World War II, Breker continued his artistic career in West Germany, establishing himself as a renowned sculptor in the post-war period.
