Gottfried Helnwein
Manfred Möller
Kunst ist für mich eine Waffe, mit der ich zurückschlagen kann
Gottfried Helnwein zählt zu den bekanntesten, aber auch zu den umstrittensten und bis heute häufig kontrovers diskutierten deutschsprachigen Künstlern unserer Zeit. Seine hyperrealistischen Bilder zeigen oft unschuldige, verwundete, bandagierte Kinder, Opfer von Gewalt und Missbrauch. Sie stehen im Zentrum seines OEuvres und machen Helnwein, ebenso wie seine Selbstportraits, weltbekannt. Er greift gesellschaftliche Tabuthemen auf, seine Bilder handeln von Schmerz, Verletzung und Gewalt, auch vom Nationalsozialismus. Mit ihren inhaltlichen Gegensätzen und ihrer Ambivalenz von Schönheit und Gewalt elektrisieren seine Bilder den Betrachter und werden gleichsam zu eindringlichen Mahnmalen unserer Gesellschaft.

LOST IN THE ANDES
Donald Ault
Walt Disney's DONALD DUCK by Carl Barks
However, the weight of Barks's effect on the world runs much deeper and often along more indirect paths than such explicit influence. For example, conceptual artist extraordinaire Gottfried Helnwein once described a moment of revelation in Europe after World War II: " Opening my first Carl Barks Donald Duck comic book felt like seeing the daylight again for someone who had been trapped underground by a mine-disaster."

ART - The Whole Story
Stephen Farthing
General editor
In Europe, Hyperrealist painters included Austrian Gottfried Helnwein (b. 1948). He first used a hyperrealist technique to portray extremes of suffering. His later works tackle the theme of Nazism and the Holocaust, most famously in his "Epiphany" series (1996-98). In "Epiphany I" (Adoration of the Magi) SS officers with a mother and a child represent the Magi and the Virgin Mary and Jesus, with the child being admired as an example of Aryan perfection.

I just saw an amazing exhibit by Gottfried Helnwein
And I’d be lying if I didn’t say I was greatly influenced by painters. Often, the spark of an idea for a story comes from a painting I’ve seen. For me, certain painters are great storytellers, better than most writers. It is the power of suggestion in their work, the bits and pieces left up to your own brain that try to make sense of what is transpiring in the image. I just saw an amazing exhibit by Gottfried Helnwein that did that.
