The 80th birthday of the artist, who is mostly known for being a sculptor, is a fantastic occasion to present his sculptural work alongside selected drawings from the artist’s possession in a small special exhibition. In both genres, the distinct essence of his art becomes clear: Helmut Heinze is a master of the portrait and, here especially, of small to medium-sized statues. These two are not only major tasks of figurative sculpture, but the artist has always devoted himself to such. Sometimes, both forms coincide in one artwork.
