Jake & Dinos Chapman X Adolf Hitler @ White Cube


Adolf Hitler's stint as a jobbing painter has always been rather overshadowed by his subsequent career in politics. However, nearly a century after the future Führer was rejected by the Academy of Fine Arts in Vienna, 13 of his watercolours go on show today in a London art gallery.

They are the star attraction in a new exhibition by Jake and Dinos Chapman, the Young British Artists famous for showing mannequins of children with genitalia instead of faces and for Hell, a series of nightmarish Hieronymus Bosch-style dioramas arranged in the shape of a swastika, which was destroyed in the Momart warehouse fire in East London in 2004.

Bought anonymously from collectors around the world for a total of £115,000, the Hitler watercolours are mostly plodding landscapes and a few smaller studies. The Chapman brothers have transformed them — the gallery uses the word “annihilated” — by painting rainbows, psychedelic skies, floating lovehearts and smiley faces into the background of each picture. The resulting work is now available as a job lot for £685,000. The brothers said that they were expecting angry reactions to the work but denied that it was offensive or that they were profiting from Hitler's notoriety.

skulptur: Joep van Lieshout "Wellness Skull"
KÖR am Kunsthalle Wien public space karlsplatz,
20. November 2008 - 15. März 2009

KÖR Kunst im öffentlichen Raum präsentiert

JOEP VAN LIESHOUT
"Wellness Skull"


"Die Freizeitindustrie ist der wichtigste Markt innerhalb unserer heutigen Gesellschaft. Allmählich verliert der Glaube jede Bedeutung und wird durch eine alternative „Selbsterfahrung“, durch Reisen, Sport und Wellness Center, ersetzt."
Joep van Lieshout

Der niederländische Künstler Joep van Lieshout ist bekannt für seine kleinen, portablen Einraumobjekte, die er als „Skulptur“ bezeichnet: Explizite Formen, die unerwartete Gebrauchsfunktionen enthalten. In dieser Konsequenz und passend zur Jahreszeit wird der „Wellness Skull“ im öffentlichen Raum in Wien präsentiert. Die begehbare, überdimensionale Totenkopf-Skulptur aus Polyester und Holz ist mit einem vollfunktionsfähigen Wellness-Center, u.a. mit Sauna, Whirlpool und Dusche, ausgestattet. Van Lieshouts humorvolle Deutung des Vanitas-Symbols verbindet zwei scheinbare Gegensatzthemen in einer Skulptur: Er entlarvt den Wellness-Wahn als Kampf gegen die Vergänglichkeit des menschlichen Körpers und den Verlust des Glaubens.

Joep van Lieshout, geboren 1963, lebt und arbeitet in Rotterdam. Seine Objekte und Installationen sind international sowohl im öffentlichen Raum als auch in den bedeutendsten Museen zu finden.
