How can one recount the Holocaust? That is certainly one of the major questions confronting any writer who tries to write on this theme. How is one to transform the horrific and inconceivable reality into fiction? How can one create a feeling of aunthenticity in the reader? How to disturb his emotional world without resorting to sentimental manipulation and how to avoid banality? ... ... +

Interview

Q:How can you explain the artistic cruelty of your cover art works? Why is there so much pain and suffering on them? Where is the border between art and cruelty?
.
A:We like to arise controversies and that is why already on the second album we decided to choose the photographs of Helnwein for our cover artwork. We really like his attitude towards art and the way he showed us. It turned out that a band picture can be something different, a real art, and not just another common, boring shot of a few people. ... +

Indepth Arts News:
..Alfred Kubin's Kuss (Kiss) is also expected to cause quite a stir in the room. The ink drawing of 1903 is probably a reaction to the sudden death of the artist's fiance Emmy Bayer. The profound work on hand-made paper is estimated at DM 12,000 - 15,000.
Slightly higher is the estimate for a work by Gottfried Helnwein which was made around 1982 and is expected to fetch DM 18,000 - 20,000. One year earlier the artist began with a series about Helden (Heros) of today, which include the extraterrestrial E.T. from Steven Spielberg's film. With his smoking E.T. Helnwein defies art by making a mass-media fantasy figure, the hero of countless children, into an object worthy of depiction.
Completely detached is Georges Braque's Grand oiseau bleu floating in the sky. The colour lithograph is estimated at DM 14,000 - 16,000. ... +

South East Correspondent

Gardaí [the Irish police] are investigating attacks on two images by the controversial Austrian artist, Gottfried Helnwein, displayed as part of the Kilkenny Arts Festival.
A spokesman for the festival said they were "disappointed and saddened" that the images had been attacked. He said Mr Helnwein's work had provoked a strong reaction throughout the festival. "There have been a lot of positive comments but there has been negative reaction as well."
The images have been a major talking point since before the festival began. A former mayor of the city, Mr Paul Cuddihy, initially objected to a painting being hung on the City Hall for fear it might be misinterpreted as lending support to Nazism. After meeting Mr Helnwein at his studio in Co Tipperary, however, Mr Cuddihy said the artist's work was "astonishingly good".

Kilkenny Arts Festival said the artist had a long and acknowledged record of taking a firm stand against Nazism and fascism. ... +

REVIEW : KILKENNY ARTS FESTIVAL
The major art works of Austrian artist Gottfried Helnwein, at Kilkenny Castle, Butler House and throughout the city are beautiful, prosaic, sinister, grotesque, unusual and ordinary and provoked a lot of discussion and disgust.

Gottfried Helnwein : Late Regret

A controversial mural by Austrian artist, Gottfried Helnwein has been damaged at the Kilkenny Arts Festival.
Huge canvases of his work, depicting images of Nazi soldiers staring adoringly at modern Madonna and Child figures, were displayed on various buildings in Kilkenny during the festival.
One of the murals hanging at the front of Kilkenny castle had paint thrown at it sometime during the night.
Another picture by Mr Helnwein, featuring a young Kilkenny girl, was also partially damaged in another part of the town. ... +

le Brocquy, Helnwein and O'Malley
The visual focal point of the arts festival has to be Gottfried Helnwein's huge photographic images displayed on the streets of Kilkenny. Originally from Austria, Helnwein is now based in County Tipperary. His display of works on the streets of Kilkenny, and in Butler House, is testament to the power of this man's visual imagery. Helnwein's concerns could be viewed on a political level, indeed in his own homeland his work has been hounded by controversy, as he directly pinpoints neo-Nazi neuroses.
'Epiphany I: Adoration of the Magi' depicts a beautiful Madonna and Child being examined by Himmler's elite SS officers. This is strong stuff, with piercing connotations on the interaction of religion, politics and power in the 20th century. Juxtaposed with these images are a series of enlarged photographs of children's faces from Kilkenny. Hung in the same manner as billboard advertisements on buildings and walls, these photographs, with their silent, shut-eyed subjects, are meditative comments on life in the making. ... +

Una sociedad intolerante formada por padres que abusan de sus hijos y líderes políticos que ejercen de dictadores es lo que podremos ver en Kleines Helnwein, el espectáculo que el argentino Rodrigo M. Malmsten presenta en el Grec.
Inspirada en la estética del pintor austriaco Gottfried Helnwein, autor de obras que denuncian una sociedad oscura e hipócrita, para Kleines Helnwein Malmsten ha escrito un texto fragmentario, no realista, en el que el espectador advierte que el personaje que es una víctima se convierte en verdugo. ... +
