According to Günther Wirth, he “took up informal tendencies in his early works , but these quickly aimed at figuration. Hardly identifiable as such, structured, but compact bodies stretch across the entire picture surface as huge torsos in the works created between 1961 and 1964. From 1965 the human figure was engineered. "
