Hanover, Kestner-Gesellschaft, 1992, cat. no. 144, “I see the abyss of sincerity as the ground of existence, as a bestiary, as life in its entirety, as an inner force of expansion. A truth that always remains on a knife’s edge! A kind of constant loss of the normal level of reality. Artaud! I see the dado. This line… I do not believe in artistic inspiration, in the abundance of visions. ‘Certainly, inspiration exists.’ I do not want to assess it. I do not want to lose myself! No discussion! I love navel freedom… The grid around one’s own swelling body, and so on. Being sucked into oneself. The indeterminate. The convolutions of the navel as a ‘refuge of loss’. A kitchen assistant that never tires. It is about life, not narcissism.” (Eugen Schönebeck, from: Pandemonium II (Manifesto), 1962)
