Eckhart Gillen Reihenfolge der Bücher (Chronologisch)

The heart of the Paintings Gallery of the Academy of Fine Arts Vienna is 'The Last Judgment' by Hieronymus Bosch (c. 1450/55 ? 1516). Bosch did not create a traditional Last Judgment; it is a morality painting that dramatically reveals to Christian viewers the punishment that awaits the seven deadly sins - the entire central panel is dedicated to this theme. In temporary shows at regular intervals, works by different artists are set in a dialogue with the Last Judgment, revealing surprising connections between the various media and works, and offering a variety of perspectives on Bosch's painting. Whether the pieces on show are paintings, graphic works, sculptures, video works, or photographs, these dialogues allow visitors to discover new facets of Bosch's 500-year-old masterpiece. Exhibition: Akademie der Bildenden Künste, Gemäldegalerie zu Gast im Theatermuseum, Wien, Austria (04.10.2018 - 20.01.2019).

From the Weimar Republic, to the United States, to the Soviet Union: Between 1919 and 1939, the visual arts of these three great powers suddenly developed along similar lines. In its exhibition Constructing the World, the Kunsthalle Mannheim presents the diverse facets of critical realism and New Objectivity for the first time in an international comparison. In it, both the artistic traces and the temporary stabilization between the World Wars are made perceptible as well as the renewed chaos that was triggered by the global economic crisis in 1929. The richly illustrated, scholarly exhibition catalogue documents this fascinating time and visualizes the explosive influence of the economy on the art of this era. Artists: Alexander Deineka, Otto Dix, Carl Grossberg, Edward Hopper, Georgia O’Keeffe, Gustavs Klucis, Alice Lex-Nerlinger, Reginald Marsh, Yury Pimenov, Serafima Vasil'evna Riangina, Alexander Rodtschenko, Franz Wilhelm Seiwert, Charles Sheeler, Karl Völckers, Grant Wood et al.

Dieses Buch lenkt erstmals die Aufmerksamkeit auf die deutsche Kunst im Zeitalter des Kalten Krieges. Im aufgeladenen Spannungsfeld der Ideologischen Systemgegensätze haben die Künstler in Ost und West eine vielschichtige und sehr eigenständige politische Iknografie entwickelt: In ihren Werken suchen sie nach ästhetischen Ausdrucksformen für das Erbe einer gemeinsamen Geschichte und die Existenz ein einer konfliktreichen Gegenwart. Eckhart Gillen zieht in diesem Buch Bilanz. Überzeugend legt er dar, dass es an der Zeit ist, die alten Feindbilder und Vorurteile zu relativieren und durch einen neuen unbefangenen Rückblick auf die Kunst im geteilten Deutschland abzulösen. Anhand von mehr als 300 Farbabbildungen verdeutlicht er, wie in Bildern und Skulpturen historische Erinnerungen und subjektive Wahrnehmungen höchst unterschiedlich verarbeitet wurden, wo sich aber auch ästhetische Berührungspunkte entdecken lassen. So wird im Fokus der Kunst die deutsche Zeitgeschichte auf eine neue, oft überraschende Weise als ein gemiensamer kultureller Erinnerungsraum sichtbar.

Throughout the Cold War, the creation and reception of art in Germany was inseparably linked to divided political realities. Artists in East and West Germany redeployed the traditions of abstraction and realism in new national and international contexts, creating a wide range of powerful artworks, often responding to popular culture and technologies of reproduction. This substantial and profusely illustrated book, with sixteen important essays by major art historians and cultural critics, is the first comprehensive look at the full extent of postwar German art. It includes work by Georg Baselitz, Willi Baumeister, Bernd and Hilla Becher, Joseph Beuys, Hanne Darboven, Hermann Glöckner, Hannah Höch, Jörg Immendorf, Anselm Kiefer, Blinky Palermo, A. R. Penck, Gerhard Richter, Rosemarie Trockel, Werner Tübke, Wolf Vostell, and many others. Art of Two Germanys/Cold War Cultures is the catalogue for a groundbreaking international exhibition that reveals for the first time the contribution of both Germanys to the development of contemporary art.
