The work of Fritz Klingbeil lives through the appeal of ever new-found orders. Free spaces and playful freedoms are unfolding from it, which are by no means arbitrary, but consistently follow a constructive logic. Like building blocks, the artistic elements enter into and dissolve connections; they are multiplied or appear as individual elements. In their size, they seem scalable. They are surrounded by a white pictorial space, by white spaces in between and walls.
