CRITICAL REVIEW by Art Historian Dr. Peter Holzwig


Excerpt (translated from the German) from a talk given by Art Historian Dr. Peter Holzwig at Sue`s exhibition in the Robert Schumann Music College in Düsseldorf.

"Abstraction continually gives birth to what I, to put it freely, would like to call the altogether original Ironfield Particle Zoo. For where else can one see friendly "overtone mascots" floating like will-o`-the-wisps through huge astral spaces, or Golden Section flowers shining above horizons, or the overtone row transformed to a series of heavenly apparitions?
The intellectual search for meaningful connections, the tracking down of essential forms, the crystalline structures, the Fibonacci spirals and interval analogies continually appear as enormous calyxes surrounded by cosmic night, or dreamy mysterious homunculi which hover over planetary abysses,.......or in the wide distances of the inner world.
All this makes Ironfield`s painting demanding and charming, profound and amiable, and that`s quite something."
