Gottfried Helnwein : Heydrich contemplating Golem's Daughter

Galerie Rudolfinum, Prague

Petr Nedoma

Director

The exhibition Angels Sleeping is a thematic cross-section, predominantly of the painting work of the Austrian artist Gottfried Helnwein (born in Vienna in 1948). The artist’s merciless approach to the residues of the Nazi past of his country is a further theme, developed in monochrome, hyperrealistic painting. The central and still extremely relevant theme of Helnwein’s work however is das "malträtierte Kind", the child exposed to suffering. The author engages with this theme in various positions from his early works from the 1970s up to the present day. His collection of works on this theme is given the largest space. Violence committed against children, in contrast with their passive exposure, distressed astonishment and impossibility of defending themselves against the world of adults.. ... +

Gottfried Helnwein : Face it
10. Mai 2007
Verlag Christian Brandstätter
Wien
Lentos Museum of Modern Art, Linz
Konsequent und virtuos. Technische Meisterschaft und auch die Konsequenz einer packenden sozialkritischen Thematik offenbaren sich in dieser Ausstellung: Gewalt, Schmerz, Verletzung werden dargestellt. Den Körper ebenso wie die Psyche betreffend. Helnwein dokumentiert hier in Linz einen künstlerischen Reifegrad, der eine weitere Steigerung kaum vorstellbar macht. Seine Eingriffe sind von einer schmerzhaften Unmittelbarkeit, deren emotionale Energie weit über die großen Bildformate hinaus den Raum und sein Publikum ergreift.

Council of the City of Philadelphia
City Council Resolution

Renowned Austrian-born artist, Gottfried Helnwein has committed himself and his art to reminding the world of the Holocaust.

Gottfried Helnwein : Epiphany I (Adoration of the Magi)

Exhibition catalogue
The Logan Collection
Gottfried Helnwein's Epiphany (Adoration of the Magi) is a strange takeoff on a traditional New Testament theme in art. The work depicts a Madonnalike mother displaying her baby to attentive Nazi officers, Painted in hyperrealist grisaille with chiaroscuro effects, the work resembles an old documentary photograph made huge. The eerie, sinister overtones are unmistakable. Who is this mother? What do these officers want with her and her child? What kind of official paper might the officer on the left hold in his hand and what might be its result? Helnwein, characteristically, presents us with an ambiguous, haunting image and leaves us to wonder about its meaning...
With its huge size, hyperrealist style, and disturbing content, this unsettling work bestows a psychological anxiety accompanied by a strong magnetic pull. Confronting it, we tend to stare-entranced by both its beauty and its seductive, malevolent overtones... ... +

Adressaten: Lehrkräfte, die Kunst an Gymnasien und Gesamtschulen aller Fortbildungsbereiche unterrichten
Koop-Partner: Wilhelm-Busch-Museum Hannover
Zielsetzung: Der im Unterricht der Qualifikationsphase vertieft zu behandelnde thematische Schwerpunkt 1 "Bilder vom Menschen" gibt u.a. die Auseinandersetzung mit "Bildern der Entfremdung" und die Inszenierung der menschlichen Figur vor. Bezüge zu dem thematischen Schwerpunkt 2 sind insbesondere durch die für Helnwein charakteristische Einbindung der menschlichen Figur in Raumzusammenhänge gegeben. Eine Annäherung an das Werk Helnweins soll in kritischer Auseinandersetzung mit dem sich in den Arbeiten manifestierenden Menschenbild erfolgen.
