Art
meets engineering
The effect of an object is largely due to the underlying idea, but it is also dependent on detailed execution. This is where our work begins.
Feckl Maschinenbau has been realizing art together with artists almost since the beginning of the company’s history.

The pulpit is the word
The shape like a call, plain, simple, full of power! The large steel plate, dark burnished, as if by an invisible hand inserted into a sandstone column and bent around it. (bottom right)
The first joint art project was realized in 1990 in Kronach. (bottom left)
OEZ memorial
Elke Härtel, Munich
Elke Härtel presented her design for the “Für Euch” monument to us at the first meeting, whereupon we submitted a cost estimate.
The artist won the competition and we began developing the artwork together on the CAD system.
One difficulty lay in combining the design and the statics. The design was revised several times until everyone involved was satisfied. The design of the tree disc was also developed and the foundation sizes, including the statics, were determined.
The individual production steps through to the surface coating were developed in collaboration with Elke Härtel. The artwork was produced in-house and installed at the OEZ
in collaboration with and in the presence of the artist.

Sculpture in front of the Bürgersaal in Haar
Steel, varnished, 330/280/260cm

FELF – Office for Food, Agriculture and Forestry
Green Center Puch, Fürstenfeldbruck
Inside: eleven parts, steel, lacquered
3 parts: 170 x 0.5 cm, 8 parts: 150 x 0.4 cm
In the access hall of the AELF, eleven color-painted metal panels display macromotifs from the world of organic life. The cellular structures are laid out by means of openings cut into the metal. Like looking through a microscope, circular sections of the structural diversity of life appear on the walls and ceilings. The motifs are taken from the biological subject areas of the individual offices; the panes connect the two air spaces and the floors of the building.

Stained glass installation
Reinhard Wöllmer
In the Liebfrauenhaus Herzogenaurach private elementary school, transparency, color, light and dynamics are the expression of the colored glass installation. It faces the light-flooded interior of the staircase and absorbs the daylight in its daily flow from east to west. The wall is also used as a projection surface, as the grazing light is reflected on it… The stainless steel supports for the stained glass panes were realized by Peter Feckl Maschinenbau.
