“Romantic heroism is what really represents my work. A heroic sense of life, a sense that man is capable of shaping and modelling his own destiny. A sense of hope.’’ - Walter Peter Brenner.
He was born in Guatemala in 1965 and is a citizen of Switzerland. He has been a sculptor for 17 years and an artist for 25 years. He developed a taste for drawing and painting from his father, Guatemalan artist Walter Peter Koller. At the Francisco Marroqun University in Guatemala, Walter Peter Brenner pursued his interest in architecture. Later, he pursued sculpture studies at the Zürich School of Fine Arts. He developed an interest in visual arts, which he studied at Guatemala's Superior School of Art (USAC), to round out his artistic education.

Walter Peter Brenner
The beauty and the grandeur of human form are at the heart of Walter Peter Brenner’s work. The sculptor has for 17 years been developing works which go against the dogmas of his time and which exalt, by their nobility, an heroic sense of life. In his sculptures there are references to antiquity, be it in the themes (Prometheus, Hercules, Atlas...) or in the bodies of his works (athletic, powerful, noble). The artist has created several monumental commissions for private and public spaces, the best known of which is the 10-metre-high terracotta sculpture «The Colossus of Inmaco», exhibited in Guatemala City. “Romantic heroism is what really represents my work. A heroic sense of life, a sense that man is capable of shaping and modelling his own destiny. A sense of hope.’’
