Friedrich Meckseper (born June 8, 1936 in Bremen ; † June 5, 2019) was a German painter, graphic artist, draftsman, designer and author.
Friedrich Meckseper grew up in Stuttgart . The building researcher Cord Meckseper is his older brother. From 1952 to 1955 he completed his apprenticeship as a mechanic with the planned professional goal of becoming a locomotive engineer. Then he first began studying at the State Academy of Fine Arts in Stuttgart under Karl Rössing , in order to continue this from 1957 to 1959 at the Academy of Fine Arts in Berlin under Wolf Hoffmann . The first of his etchings also date from this period.
In addition to his artistic work, Meckseper was also interested in technology. He designed and built a steamboat from 1972 to 1974 and crossed the Alps five times in a gas balloon between 1978 and 1986.
Meckseper was influenced by, for example, Anton Heyboer, Bissier, Athanasius Kircher, Leonardo da Vinci, Hieronymus Bosch and Saul Steinberg. His oil paintings, etchings, collages, drawings and objects are often characterized by an enigmatic and mysterious tension in a minimalist arrangement of objects, coupled with great precision in technical execution. In addition, technical elements such as balance wheels, gears or clocks are often found in his works.
