You can see that they share certain weird fantasies involving vegetable growths and engineering or biological tubing, but when it comes to the figures and modelling - Loy's drawing is crude, her painting technique so weak - frankly I find the comparison pretty embarrassing. There are other artists her work would sit more comfortably with, but up against her hubby's stuff, it just looks like an indulgence.
Having said this, Suzanne Gerber has posted a much more impressive example of Loy's work - or purportedly by Loy - that has sadly since disappeared. Now if the rest of her work looked as good as the small, but perfectly formed (24 X 30cm) Grimoire, I wouldn't have a problem with it - the fact that nothing I have seen of hers, looks anywhere nearly as accomplished, only makes me suspect the hand of her husband in there somewhere. Check out an accompanying example - Dampf - (steam). Admittedly a much larger work - but where has all that nuance and touch suddenly gone?
It just looks like girly Neo Rauch and it's not a good look.
