Gottfried Helnwein : Der Rosenkavalier by Richard Strauss
LA Downtown News
Kristin Friedrich
Gottfried Helnwein brings his monochromatic technique to stage in the L.A. Opera's Der Rosenkavalier.
For the last several months, Downtown-based artist Gottfried Helnwein has switched back and forth between two realities. In his Arts District studio, he works on material to fill gallery and museum shows booked into 2008, all over the world.
Then he steps out into the sunlight, chats in several languages to several friends at a coffee shop on Traction Avenue, and walks to the Los Angeles Opera's costume shop on Alameda Street. Here, he oversees the costumes and sets for Der Rosenkavalier, which opens May 29 at the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion. ... +

30. Deutschen Evangelischen Kirchentag
Predigt der Landesbischöfin im Eröffnungsgottesdienst
Dr. Margot Käßmann

Landesbischöfin

Eins zeigt ein Mädchen mit frechem Gesicht und Blindenband um den Arm, das die Zunge herausstreckt. Erst habe ich gelächelt. Wer den Blick länger verharren lässt, sieht, dass dem Mädchen Blut zwischen den Beinen herunterläuft. Es wurde ganz offensichtlich missbraucht, ihm wurde Gewalt angetan.... Ja, Kinder sind verletzbar. Kindheit kann grausam sein, wenn Kinder ausgeliefert sind. Ich denke an sexuellen Missbrauch, eine unglaublich Form von Folter an Menschen, die lebenslang an dem Trauma leiden werden. Ich denke an Kindersoldaten in Togo, im Kongo, im Sudan. Zerstörte Leben, brutal geopfert für idiotische Machtkämpfe, in denen Zerstörung das oberste Gebot ist, in denen es keine Ziele mehr gibt. Ich denke an Kinder in Indien, die schuften schon mit fünf Jahren um ein paar Münzen zu verdienen, damit ihre Familie überleben kann. Ich denke an die 12-jährigen Judith Wischnajatskaja, die im Juli 1942 in ihrem letzten Brief schrieb: “Lieber Vater! Vor dem Tod nehme ich Abschied von Dir. Wir möchten so gerne leben, doch man lässt uns nicht, wir werden umkommen. Ich habe solche Angst vor diesem Tod, denn die kleinen Kinder werden lebendig in die Grube geworfen.“ ... +

Gottfried Helnwein : working on "Head of a Child 8" (Harley)
Variety
VLife
by Scarlet Cheng
SHOWBIZZERS HAVE BEEN COMMISSIONING ART FROM THE LIKES OF WARHOL, SCHNABEL, CLEMENTE AND SCHARF FOR YEARS
Kevin Smith wept when he finally received the painting of Gottfried Helnwein
"I don't spend money on coke or whores." deadpans Kevin Smith. "And I am not a big car guy with a fleet of Ferraris or anything like that. But I can get behind an indulgence like this."
The indulgence in question is towering a nine-foot-tall canvas of Smith's daughter, Harley, which hangs in the entry of his Hollywood home.
Smith commissioned the portrait two years ago from Austrian Artist Gottfried Helnwein, who is best known for his dark, noir-style paintings.
Smith admittedly wept when he finally received the work, which has since become his pride and joy - a family heirloom that is a testament to his love for his child as well as being a serious work of art. ... +

Gottfried Helnwein in der Ausstellung "Beautiful Children" in Hannover
"Ich habe mich immer mit dem Thema Schmerz und Gewalt beschäftigt, mit dem Holocaust, der deutsch-österreichischen Vergangenheit und mit dem Thema Kindesmisshandlung." Gottfried Helnwein.
Wahrscheinlich hat der Schauspieler Sean Penn ja Recht: Die Welt gleiche einem Gespensterhaus, sagte er einmal, und Gottfried Helnwein sei darin unser Reiseführer. Der 1948 in Wien geborene Künstler hat die Schrecken der Wirklichkeit immer wieder in alptraumähnlicher Weise aufs Papier und die Leinwand gebracht - und sie oft auch an Kindern gezeigt. Mit entstellten, vernarbten Gesichtern sehen sie uns an. Diese malträtierten Kinder wirken ohnmächtig gegenüber der Gewalt, die man ihnen antut. ... +
