Arnulf Rainer: CrossArnulf Rainer: Cross

The Cross Can Convey The Meaning

Published by DuMont.
Text by Rienhold Baumstark.

A pre-eminent master among Austrian painters, Arnulf Rainer (born 1929) has made a métier of exploring the form of the cross, in countless permutations--from Greek cross to anthropomorphic cross to crucifix--and in photography, painting, works on paper and sculpture. This volume surveys this defining theme across Rainer's 50-year career.

Arnulf Rainer: PhotographsArnulf Rainer: Photographs

Published by Hatje Cantz.
Edited by Karl Pfefferle. Essay by Robert Fleck.

Arnulf Rainer, born in 1929 in Baden, near Vienna, is one of the most important European artists to have emerged after 1945. He is best known for his gestural style and overpaintings of works of his own and others, including some photographs, but for the past three years, Rainer has been taking photographs of his own. Arnulf Rainer: Photographs is the first publication to present these little-known works, all 79 that exist to date. Instead of "depicting" something, each photograph--or each "non-photo full of question marks"--presents riddles. Set up like paintings, but created using "estranged photographic means," as Robert Fleck has written, these are formal references to Rainer's abstract painting: by blurring areas of the image, using indeterminate spatial coordinates, and partially covering the aperture, Rainer creates photographs that seem unintentional and autonomous, and then superimposes them with his trademark iconoclastic gestures.

Arnulf Rainer: Bible OverpaintingsArnulf Rainer: Bible Overpaintings

From the Sammlung Frieder Burda

Published by Hatje Cantz.
Edited by Helmut Friedel. Essay by Friedhelm Mennekes.

Arnulf Rainer--the best-known and most important Austrian artist of the past fifty years--forged a completely new path in European art with his "overpaintings": paintings and drawings done "over" already existing works. Between 1995 and 1998 Rainer produced a remarkable series of Bible illustrations, in which he engaged with originals ranging from 10th-Century illuminated manuscripts to 19th century works. These included pieces by such artists as Giotto and Sandro Botticelli, Giovanni Bellini, and William Blake, as well as Romanesque ceiling decorations, Gothic stained-glass windows, miniatures from the illuminated Wenceslas Bible, woodcuts from 15th century incunabula, and the 1868 Bible illustrated by Gustave Dorª. In his responses to these works Rainer displays the full spectrum of his palette of "overpainting" techniques--from the most delicate of over-drawings to dense paintwork that virtually obliterates the original. In this volume all 160 of Arnulf Rainer's cycle of Bible illustrations are reproduced in large-format plates, accompanied by texts from the authorized version of the Bible from the year 1611--as well as informative art-historical data and detailed commentaries on the artist's reworkings.
