While the new paper cuts remain geometrically abstract and are sometimes dominated by strong stripes reminiscent of Pop Art, Schaefer’s earlier wall collages show finer and curvier lines as well as inclusions of writing or figurative elements. The associations that his works evoke therefore span a wide range from Sonja Delaunay, Fernand Léger, Alexander Calder, Bauhaus to Pop Art, Op Art and Comics. But every viewer of Schaefer’s works feels one thing: rhythm. Music. And no matter whether delicate or powerful, there is hardly a negative tone to be found. “Despite the lack of messages, my works reflect my inner music, the rhythm, the `be easy, be happy´ that I try to maintain in good times and bad.”
