Whereas Brodwolf's object sculptures were once increasingly described as «completely de-literarised figurative cloths» with the loss of concrete textual reference, the current discourse sees precisely in this the «dialectic inherent in the work», a «poetic alchemy» of Homunculi that constantly confronts the viewer with his or her own imagination: «It is about that place of the inner world where a broken branch can become a horse, a sword or an undersea boat that glides exploratively through oceans that the mind paints in the air.» Bernhard Holeczek, Jürgen Brodwolf the painter, in: Jürgen Brodwolf, Werkverzeichnis der Objekte
