Historian Peter Selz has compared Gottfried Helnwein's tortured, screaming, and bandaged self-portraits to Messerschmidt's sculptural self-portraits,
but the artist has said, " The reason why I took up the subject of self-portraits and why I have put myself on stage was to function as a kind of representative. There is nothing autobiographical, no therapy, and it says nothing about me personally. .... I am always available as a model." ...

Die Sammlung der DG Bank Gottfried Helnwein
Helnweins künstlerische Praxis beruht auf der Erkenntnis der grundsätzlich unterschiedlichen Seinsformen von Fotografie und Malerei. Einerseits schöpft er als einer der konsequentesten Multimedia-Künstler überhaupt die spezifischen Möglichkeiten der jeweils verwendeten Medien bis zu den Grenzen ihrer Horizonte aus -- neben Fotografie und Malerei die Zeichnung und die Performance -, spiegelt sie andererseits, aber auch gewissermassen ineinander, so dass sie sich gegenseitig erhellen und ihre Wirkung steigern.

Das von der Photographie geprägte Jahrhundert
Die Ausstellung präsentiert vierzig ausgewählte Statements großer Photographen des 20.Jahrhunderts:
von Cartier-Bresson, Lebeck, Chargesheimer bis zu Klauke und Helnwein wird jeweils eine bedeutende künstlerische Position gezeigt. Die Ausstellung konzentriert sich nicht auf das Einzelbild, sondern komponiert ganze Werkgruppen zu großformatigen Tableaus und unterstreicht so den "journalistischen Aspekt" in der Photographie dieses Jahrhunderts. Einen Abschluß findet dieser Jahrhundertrückblick in drei künstlerischen Positionen, die in sehr persönlicher Weise Stellung zur gesellschaftlichen Situation beziehen: Jürgen Klaukes "Self Performance" (1972/73), Philip Pococks Berliner Szenen (1982) sowie Gottfried Helnweins "Poems" (1998). ...

The State Russian Museum St. Petersburg
Palace Edition The Ludwig Donation
"Child's Head", 1991, Oil and acrylic on canvas, 650x403.5
Pg. 278 The early stages of this monumental head can be seen in Helnwein's widely varied portrayals from the seventies of suffering children, but above all in the Cologne installation of anonymous children's portraits "9th November Night" from 1988. The human face, in particular the child's face, is of great fascination for Helnwein and consequently accounts for one of his central pictorial subjects. The monumental face of a little girl which is introduced here is, as it were, representative of all children. In our adult society oriented towards profit and success, children can almost be described as a fringe group, their interests indeed being observed in a comparatively modest fashion. Against this background, this monumentalizing of the face in connection with the hyperrealistic style of painting is to be understood as an oppressive irritation of our customary experience of perception. Originally the child's head was shown in a Minorite church in Krems, Stein; in fact it was placed at the focal point of a huge early Gothic room which lent the picture a positively sacral tone. ...

(Auszug)
In seinen Gemälden und Grafiken arbeitet Helnwein besonders in der Mitte der 80er Jahre gleichzeitig mit unterschiedlichen Techniken: Abstrakte, gestische und monochrome Malerei stehen neben Fotorealistischen Porträts, Aquarell und Zeichnung neben Fotografie, die er zum Teil stark überarbeitet. Dabei integriert er Bildzitate aus Politik, Massenmedien und Trivialkultur. Bevorzugter Gegenstand seiner Arbeiten sind Kinderbilder, Porträts und Menschen in einem oft trostlosen Stadtraum. ...

Edited by Howard Sounes
The Book Bukowski in Pictures is the first pictorial biography of cult writer, Charles Bukowski. The writer's extraordinary private and public life is illustrated with hundreds of photographs, most published for the first time. Extracts from Bukowski's poetry and prose are sprinkled throughout, together with drawings, cartoons, manuscripts, rare broadsides and personal letters. It features powerful new portraits of Bukowski by leading photographers such as Gottfried Helnwein and Tony Lane, former art director of Rolling Stone, as well as work by R.Crumb. All photographs have detailed captions by biographer Howard Sounes who has also written a powerful introductory text with new revelations gleaned from Bukowski's recently declassified FBI file. The end result is a fascinating life in pictures that will be essential for all Bukowski fans.

Prestel-Künstlerlexikon
Gottfried Helnwein
Helnweins Thema ist der malträtierte, unterdrückte Mensch, am beeindruckendsten in einer Serie von mißhandelten und verstümmelten Kinderköpfen (1969). Dieses Thema inszeniert er auch in Fotoserien und Installationen sowie Performances ("Blut für Helnwein", 1972). Nach 1985 kombiniert er großformatige Fotos mit abstrakt-gestischer Malerei ("Der Beweis", 1986). In Helnweins Kunstauffassung offenbart sich ein obsessiver Realismus, der die verdrängte, tabuisierte »Nachtseite« der menschlichen Zivilisation in packenden Metaphern veranschaulicht.
