André Butzer *
(born in Stuttgart in 1973)
Walt Sching (Friedens-AEG), 2005, signed A. Butzer, signed, dated A. Butzer 05 and titled Portrait ((crossed out)) Walt Sching (Friedens-AEG “N-Ingenieure (N-Sching) Drahn, Walter Glumm Universum (Sching) ALL Walt Walt Walt Walt Walt Tadallest Bleost Sching (Friedens-AEG)” on the reverse, oil on canvas, 250 x 200 x 2.6 cm, on stretcher
Provenance:
European Private Collection
André Butzer‘s figures always stay in a strange abeyance: at first glance grotesque heads, waving hands and clumsy feet can be taken as signs of unconcern but then the harmed and deformed creatures cause a feeling similar to compassion. The question is: what kind of life do these beings have? Are they human beings or mythical creatures and to what extend should we take their mental expressions seriously? The reference to comic may give us a hint for the answer. André Butzer believes in the influence of Walt Disney‘s figures on our image of human beings, nativity as well as artificiality are parts of this. The world of Mickey Mouse knows no moral, real pain nor real joy.
