Painter Ferencz Olivier delivers the Werder Diamond
Here you can read an article published by the management of Werder Bremen, published on the Werder Bremen website on 25th October 2004 on the occasion of the painting delivery by the artist Ferencz Olivier.
Cultural moment in the Werder-Tower: The CEOs Klaus Allofs and Manfred Müller received the artist Ferencz Olivier and thanked him for his extraordinary "Werder-Diamond", which will embellish the entrance area on the 5th floor in the future.
The two-metres high "Werder-W", in which diverse newspaper headlines and photos of players and people in charge from the champion season have been inwrought, was created within six weeks. Conspicuous is the distinctive style of the artist. "It is my goal to create my artworks like finds of valuable cultural assets in a museum“, Ferencz Olivier describes his artwork. "This symbolism was fitting exceedingly well to the Werder-Diamond, as it also stands for great tradition and an eventful history", said the 42-years old artist from Muenster who focusses on the creation of relief-like interpretations of word- and figurative marks.
Werder´s board of directors took notice of Ferencz Olivier through his diverse works he has created in the area of soccer, among these the official painting on the occasion of the 100st anniversary of FIFA, which has been installed in the headquarters of the world association in Zurich.
