Marianne Heller Heidelberg is showing the exhibition, Meteorites and Other Poems in November
2021. The exhibition was conceived and planned for the 80th birthday of an artist who enjoys respect
and recognition worldwide, and it shows hand-picked recent works: large-scale porcelain pieces,
non-representational forms - the Meteorites - and porcelain images, which in complex decor
techniques and in delicate or strong colours as well as printing or decal techniques bear the
poetically and intellectually unmistakable mark of Maria Geszler-Garzuly.
She was born in Hungary in 1941 into a family of
musicians but decided herself on ceramics, later taking a
degree in it. She says, "A genius whose uncanny
sensitivity bursts into our lives like a meteorite changes
our history and our destiny, causes deep wounds - or
someone's talent and skills enters our life's path like a
wonderful, gleaming gift. We do not understand them,
these objects, these meteorites with their interstellar
stardust, - we do not know where they came from, what
messages and impressions they convey to us from other
worlds. They rush over us, then crash on us - like
incomprehensible and inexplicable talents, brilliant
creative individuals ..." In her statement, she says, "Every
day is a mystery, every person is an enigma, every story,
our destiny is incomprehensible. My form appears in my
clay and porcelain figures."
