Work


The ratio of mass and space, volume and space and the effect of surface directions in space, is the subject of his work. The surface of the body as a boundary, the line for coinciding body surfaces, as well as the color and structure of the material are the means. Peter Schwickerath preferably clearly defined shapes for his metal sculptures, such as the square pillar and the cylinder. These have, in their different arrangement and the interplay of mass and volume, display the destination, spatial relationships and to make recognizable. Schwickerath's special interest is the variety of ways in formal simplicity and austerity .[citation needed]

Numerous large sculptures are in public space, in sculpture parks at home and abroad, as well to private collections.
