Gottfried Helnwein | НОВОСТИ | Новейщая информация | ESSAI : LA PHOTO N’EST RIEN, SA REPRODUCTION EST TOUT

Une peinture photoréaliste demande un mois de travail, voire une année. Parfois, la toile n’est que la copie d’une photo. Jason Brooks, un Britannique de 31 ans, s’est récemment vu décerner pour l’une de ses œuvres l’un des prix artistiques les plus convoités de Grande-Bretagne. Par ailleurs, Londres accueille en ce moment une rétrospective consacrée à l’Américain Chuck Close. Il est considéré comme l’un des fondateurs du photoréalisme, au même titre que Gottfried Helnwein qui expose actuellement dans une église gothique à Krems en Autriche. Serait-ce le come-back du photoréalisme ? Comment se fait-il que cette technique, qui a connu son âge d’or dans les années 70, fascine aujourd’hui les jeunes artistes ? Pourquoi ces tableaux interpellent-ils davantage le spectateur que les clichés d’origine ? METROPOLIS a rencontré Gottfried Helnwein et Jason Brooks à Londres et s’est entretenu avec eux de leurs motivations, des techniques employées et de l’avenir de ce mouvement. ...

Ich schätze Helnweins unendliche zeichnerische Qualität, seinen enormen künstlerischen Witz. Vom malerischen Können muß man gar nicht reden, da ist er Weltklasse.
Außerdem ist Helnwein ein überaus intelligenter und unruhiger Geist. Seine Übermalungsexperimente sind hochklassig: Luxusbilder, Weltkunst. ...

"I ask, I do not answer."
- My works are questions, not answers, says the Austrian, Gottfried Helnwein,
time and time again focusing on the most sore points of contemporary, general and private history.
The retrospective exhibition of this controversial artist was opened yesterday in Wäinö Aaltonen Museum of Art and is open until 22nd of November.
Helnwein says he became an artist because, being born after the war, he had so many questions to ask.
He also stresses that the same questions must be asked again and again.
"I, as probably every artist does, have only one theme which I incessantly vary. The use of diverse techniques is but a means of getting closer to one's original goals." ...

The child has grown into a world famous artist. But he has carried his questions with him. Today opens a large retrospective exhibition of Helnwein's art in Waino Aaltonen Museum of Art in Turku. The exhibition contains aquarels, oil paintings, drawings and photographs. They have often caused controversies by dealing with subjects that are all too sensitive. ...
