style

The life-size figure in its relationship to space is at the center of Fleck's sculptural work. In addition to the full-length depictions of people, animal sculptures are also created. The formative power of the artist is reflected in modeled sculptures as well as in sculpture from sandstone . Her sculptural drawings also attracted special attention. Sculptures in public space can be found in Dresden, Frankfurt / Oder, Schwedt and Eisenhüttenstadt , among others .

“Regina Fleck created her image of people in an almost classic-looking vocabulary of forms with the help of plastic as body and space-forming art. ... With this view she consciously places herself in a tradition that extends from Georg Kolbe to Wilhelm Lehmbruck , in which she sees one of her role models. In doing so, the body is built up by her as a naturally developing organism; nothing is left to chance in the three-dimensional formulation. ” - Brigitte Jähner, Regina Fleck: Weiblicher Torso, p. 237, visual arts issue 6/1985, Henschelverlag, Berlin
