Artists are the visual, verbal, and audio guardians of our collective consciousness. For example, few can remember the politics or history of 18th century Europe, but the music of Mozart and the paintings of Watteau continue to be a source of inspiration. We might not always like the message, but it is artists that distil the essence of an era. They serve as thoughtful messengers to a sometimes unperceptive present but an often receptive future.

Gottfried Helnwein : Das Paradies und die Peri
12. Juli 2008
Anhaltisches Theater Dessau
Ein Tanzdrama von Gregor Seyffert
Regisseur und Choreograph Gregor Seyffert hat gemeinsam mit dem Bildenden Künstler Gottfried Helnwein eine Visualisierung gefunden, die sich in drastischer und berührender Weise vom „romantischen“ Original unterscheidet. Das Aufeinandertreffen der Peri – halb Mensch, halb Engel – mit den apokalyptischen Zuständen auf der Erde bleibt für den Ausgang der Geschichte bei Seyffert/Helnwein nicht ohne Folgen.
Die spektakuläre Umsetzung der Geschichte nach einem persischen Märchen des irischen Dichters Thomas Moore lassen im Anhaltischen Theater Dessau Zuschauer- und Bühnenebenen auf der Hauptbühne zu einer Aktionsfläche verschmelzen. Tanz, Körpertheater und Luftakrobatik werden Bühne und Schnürboden zu einem einzigartigen theatralen Raum verwandeln, wobei die Besucher direkt am Geschehen auf der Hauptbühne platziert werden. ... +

The exhibition Angels Sleeping is a thematic cross-section, predominantly of the painting work of the Austrian artist Gottfried Helnwein. The five sections of the exhibition present the fundamental circuits of Helnwein’s work. The introduction comprises heads – faces, including the artist’s iconic self-portrait, painfully acute metaphors of the limits on freedom of expression in Austria in the 1970s and 80s. 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 is partially shifted into a further position, ironically entitled Art in Amerika. This presents the relationships of the white, frequently uniformed “majority” to other ethnic groups and minorities, particularly in the United States, sharpened by the photographic precision of the images. ... +

Gottfried Helnwein : Sleep 5
2008
Fenton Gallery, Cork

Gottfried Helnwein's classic yet unnerving images transform sentimental representations of childhood into portraits of individual subjects frozen at the moment of suffering. His photo-paintings pirouette on the fine line between chocolate box pictures/excessive sentimentality and the cost to children of being treated as commodities, of suffering emotional or physical pain at a grown-up's hands.
High pictorial and technical values create compositions that recall contemporary cinema and seventeenth-century painting, expanding the treatment of time into epic. This apparent grandiosity plays against the immediacy of each suffering subject, underlining the different experience of time in childhood. Small hurts can devastate when you're a child. Big hurts stay with you for years, as survivors of Hitler's Anschluss testify.
Now, in the age of virtual use and abuse of children, Helnwein's insistence on valuing the humanity and charm of the littlest, the least powerful, offers a counterpoint to claims that suffering counts most when you're grown-up. It opens his practice into a series of pictorial mise-en-scènes, as did Rembrandt's tableaux in The Blinding of Samson (1636) or The Night Watch (1642). ... +
