Actually Karl-Heinz Hansen, German painter and wood engraver. "So if Hansen-Bahia's language of form seems "brutal", it is in accordance with the first law, that the substance brings the form with it; and the other, that the form must eat up the substance. This material, however, is monstrous, and the form, like the giant snake after the devouring, is drawn by what it has devoured." (Steffen Andres on Hansen-Bahia, http://www.hansen-bahia.de/).
