Steeped in his native landscape, he has made man's relationship to nature into his leitmotif. Above all the tree and its growth, which makes time legible, have stood at the center of his interest from the start. His own sensual perception and the elemental experience of objects are increasingly a trigger for his artistic engagement. Whereby a tangible contact with the object turns into the decisive starting-point for his musings on the experience of reality. In this publication, a selection is introduced from different creative periods, among which is a group of drawings that make his themes apparent: a sensual access to the world, as well as the interpenetration of nature and culture marked by ancient mythology and its continuation in the Renaissance. 0Exhibition: Kunstmuseum Winterthur, Germany (27.4.-11.8.2013).
