“Helnwein” ‘Ninth November Night’”,
Ludwig Museum - Cologne/Musée de l’Elysée - Lausanne 1988,
text by Reinhold Mißelbeck, Simon Wiesenthal, Charles-Henri Favrod
and Heiner Müller. ...

It was to our good fortune that Gottfried Helnwein also strove to break away from the museum and gallery sector in order to communicate with a larger public. This appeared on a grand scale on the site between the cathedral and Museum Ludwig, and at a time of "photokina", with its hundreds of thousands of visitors. The 100 metre picture wall did not fail to hit its mark: it induced bewilderment as well as aggressiveness. After a few days numerous pictures had been slashed, one even stolen. Gottfried Helnwein saw the exhibition as a process which would continue and be reflected in later presentations. The pictures were not renewed, but patched up, so that this reminder of the persecution of Jewish people would bear the traces of a lack of insight and understanding in the present day. ...

Die Bilderstrasse zwischen dem Kölner Dom und dem Museum Ludwig ist hundert Meter lang. Jedes der Bilder ist vier Meter hoch. Es sind täglich Tausende, die den hinteren Teil der Domplatte passieren, und die weitaus meisten von ihnen, die nur die Bildersprache der Werbung an dieser Stelle kennen, sind verdutzt, empört, schockiert über die bleichen Kindergesichter,die im Scanachrome-Verfahren auf Kunststoffolie gebracht worden sind.
Kaum war die Bilderstrasse installiert, kam es schon zu ersten Beschädigungen: Nachts wurde mit Messern in die, durch das Schminken verfremdeten, alt wirkenden grossformatigen Kinderportraits hineingestochen, ein Bild wurde gestohlen.
Kölner Museen und die Stadtverwaltung erhalten täglich Dutzende Anrufe und befinden sich im Erklärungs- und Legitimationszwang. ...

The exhibition Passage(s) was presented by the Centre international d'art contemporain de Montréal (CIAC), a non profit organization founded in 1983 in order to present various activities in the visual arts: exhibitions, conferences and special events.
The Portrait
The photographic representation of people, whether as models or as subjects, is a theme of a group of works whose treatment foils in a way the conventional act of recognition. Such is the strategy of German artist Gotfried Helnwein. ...
