peter heesch (1969)
Peter Heesch is a German painter and abstractionist sculptor.
Heesch studied at the Berchtesgaden School of Wooden Sculpture and trained in Zimbabwe and Norway. Since 1995 he has been working in Munich, where, in addition to his own works, he also carries out commissions in wood, stone and bronze in his studio. The artist treats the material with great respect and sensitivity, and mainly creates sculptures in wood and stone. Heesch strives for symbiosis, a unity of material, form and expression. In his self-expression, the sculptor moves between the figurative and the abstract. His motifs are often animals as well as pairs of concepts such as movement-rest, light-heavy, air-water, hard-soft.
Peter Heesch participates in solo and group exhibitions.
