Hans Dieter Schaal about his work:
In his preface to my book Inspiration on Landscape, published in 1994, Geoffrey Jellicoe compares my drawing considerations with the works of Paul Klee. What at first sounds a bit highfalutin is correct insofar as I do not move exclusively in the banal everyday and functional space in everything I draw, design and realise, but always reflect second and third surrealities as well. >Art does not reproduce the visible, but makes visible
Could it be that building culture, indeed the whole of culture, will soon sink into green primeval forests and huge wetland bio-topes? Or will foreign, warlike peoples destroy or occupy our ci-ties and landscapes and cultivate them anew?
