Ligatur-Stempel "FW im Kreis. In moderner Weise die Gestalt und das Wesen des Tieres zum Ausdruck bringende Arbeit des Tierbildhauers. Weickmann absolvierte 1953-1956 eine Holzbildhauerlehre in Landshut, besuchte danach bis 1957 die Meisterschule für Holzbildhauer in Stuttgart bei Professor Ernst Rülke; 1963-1967 folgte ein Studium der Bildhauerei an der Münchener Akademie. In seinem Oeuvre befasst er sich mit Wildtieren, die ihn schon als Kind faszinierten, studiert ihr Verhalten und ihre Lebensräume auf Reisen, forscht zu ihrer Geschichte, den Mythen und Symbolik bei den Völkern. Neben den zoologischen Bezeichnungen tragen seine Tierskulpturen zusätzliche Namen, die auf Mythen, Naturgeister und Naturgebiete zurückgehen. Der Künstler bevorzugt Linde, Robinie, Kirsche und Ulme und bezieht hierbei die Materialität und Haptik der teilw. zusammengesetzten Hölzer in die Wirkung mit ein. Viele bedeutende Einzelausstellungen waren Weickmann gewidmet, u.a. im Stadtmuseum Abensberg (2017) und im Museum Koenig in Bonn (2024). 40 cm x 84 cm x 30,5 cm.
Robinia (locust tree) and acacia wood. Unique. Signed with monogram stamp and dated 22.12.2001 on an inlaid metal plaque.
