I went put: to interview a
man called Heinrich Eichner
and fell in love with his entire
family. Probably because they
are a family who do tilings to
gether. Not only fun things; but
Heinrich and Edith, with their
five children, work together as
well.
They live in a little brown
house in one of Edmonton's new
suburbs.' In the summer there
are tall sunflowers leaning hea
vily against the house and a
small garden in the front yard
that .gives one an ’instantaneous
impression a tiny bit of Europe
has been transplanted to the
prairie city.
Eichner now teaches an art
course as a member of the ex
tension faculty of tlie Univer
sity of Alberta but at one time
he took any job he coul'd find
to keep his family fed and a
roiof over their heads. For five
years he was employed at small
jobs or as an orderly in a hos
pital. He never lost faith in the
future he could expect in this
new land though he did have
periods of deep depression and
discouragement.
Perhaps his greatest fortune
is his wife. Warm and outgoing,
it is evident from the moment
one enters their studio home
that she is not only mother,
wife and artist, but his inspir
ation as well.
When I started out for their
home I was merely bent on
learning a little, about the man
Who had created the figures in
stone of the Zodiac that pave
the -entrance to Edmonton’s
beautiful Planetarium. Before I
left the Eichner family I had
been literally transported- into
their world of dreams.
It Was-a whirlwind sort of an
interview because I was., in a
constant state or trying to list
en to the quiet philosophy of
Heinrich, who looks like a re
production of our image of
Jesus Christ, the many praises
of their friend and mentor’, Jan
Moytle, and the happy enthusi
asms of Edith, all in the broken
accent of newly learned Eng-,
lisih,
Interspersed with the conver
sation were trips 'to the kitchen
to watch a blueberry dessert
bubbling in the .oven (baked in
my honor),' to enjoy the art
work of all five children —
especially the work of Barbara
who' has 'inherited her father’s
bold technique 'and her mother’s
sense of color and form — and
a tour of the basement work
shop'where they all busy them
selves creating.
It was when we reached the
rock pile that my story began,
to jell. They looked like very
ordinary rocks until Heiinrtich
wet them, Then I saw the won
derful colors he has obtained in
his Zodiac figures. It took
months to collect these stones.
As a family they hunted in the
area farm yards and fields, be
side stream and roadside, for
the treasures Heinxl.ch needed
for his contracted masterpiece.
They all worked at slitting and
polishing the stones he chose
from the pile.
I wanted to understand his
deep rooted belief that all hu
mans were bom with artistic
talent. “Many lose it when sub
jected to civilization. There is
a unity in composition and we
give of our best if we can find
our way back to childhood, for
there is. faith and innocence in
most artistic expression”,
one of 'his opinions.
Trained Artists
This, interesting couple
15 years ago at the Muenster
School of Handicraft and Art.
Edith Eichner is an accomplish
ed sculptress as well as a paint
er and she has written and il
lustrated .a- winsome story for
children. She has modeflled and
reproduced in concrete “Christ
on the Cross” which hangs in a
Catholic retreat house, and
"Christ the Teacher” in bronze
commissioned by Assumption
Academy. When she is angry
with her husband she paints in
yellow, but most of the time in
blues ’ "because the spiritual
light chines through”.
When I. asked Heinrich why
his Planitarium mural, was on
the ground instead of on a wall
he replied, “because people
should know where they, are
walking. We seldom iookz down,
that is wshy so many stumble.”
More of ‘his philosophy,
truly characteristic of
charm. > .
