GALERIE THOMAS FISCHER
BERLIN, GERMANY

‘Painted with the paper lying flat on a table or on the ground, the watercolors run across the surface and fray, taking on a life of their own and opening to the abstract. This creates a contrast, as if playing with control and the loss of control both with the untouched white of the paper and the detailed lines in the representation of the faces, hands, individual objects.’

MENSTRUALITIES

‘The drawings, which Friedemann says he creates in a state of lucidity, may be compared to a surrender to language that opens a semi-conscious channel by means of inner listening.’

GALERIE THOMAS FISCHER
BERLIN, GERMANY

The figures engage so self-evidently and directly in this posing and flirting that the question of the real or unreal and their own vulnerability hardly seems to be raised. The limits of what can be shown are shifted ever further, but actual intimacy remains lacking, although constantly suggested. A discomfort and a simultaneous fascination in the face of the bodies contorting themselves before the camera serves as a point of departure for Friedemann Heckel’s works.’
