Le opere pi\u00f9 recenti di Amelie von Wulffen raccontano la sua lunga analisi della pittura come un medium che l\u2019artista spesso sembra sperimentare senza consapevolezza di s\u00e9.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Von Wulffen venera la pittura, pi\u00f9 di qualsiasi altro approccio alla creazione artistica, per la sua storia e attinge a questo medium dall&#8217;interno, prendendone in prestito i capitoli meno eccellenti.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Le opere in mostra sono permeate dal gusto della pittura di genere, come quando von Wulffen accosta le bucce di limone ricurve, tipiche delle nature morte olandesi, alle pennellate filamentose dell&#8217;Espressionismo. Von Wulffen utilizza la schiettezza della tonalit\u00e0 marrone, peculiare della tavolozza tedesca &#8211; dalla pittura di genere del XVIII secolo fino ad Anselm Kiefer &#8211; come se fosse un genere tutto suo. Von Wulffen non tralascia nemmeno i gradi pi\u00f9 bassi della pittura &#8211; nelle sue opere si leggono brani chiaramente ispirati ai prodotti di massa, come i quadri-suovenir, che si trovano nelle localit\u00e0 di villeggiatura.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In <em>Der Nackte im Park (Il nudo nel parco)<\/em>, le immagini sono dipinte una sull&#8217;altra senza sosta, come in una sorta di tic compulsivo.\u00a0 Un angolo di strada e un paesaggio autunnale sono i soggetti principali della tela. Al centro un nudo sta raccogliendo un&#8217;arancia. Queste sono le tipiche cose che i bambini pensano che gli artisti dipingano, ma non \u00e8 quello che fanno davvero. Nel dipingere questi soggetti, von Wulffen si concede una breve pausa dalla realt\u00e0 e illustra il divario tra le diverse possibilit\u00e0 di comprensione del medium. La pittura ha spesso un dominio pi\u00f9 ampio e variegato rispetto a quello che solitamente le riconosciamo ed \u00e8 chiamata ad agire in una miriade di contesti, molti dei quali sono stati effettivamente ostracizzati, ma non nell\u2019opera di Amelie von Wulffen.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Una natura morta &#8211; <em>Kinder, Hunde, Silber (Bambini, cani, argento)<\/em> \u2013 presenta gli elementi caratteristici del genere: la brocca d\u2019argento, i bicchieri e la bottiglia di vetro, il limone sbucciato a met\u00e0; ma sono due fotografie incorniciate a svelare l\u2019ambientazione contemporanea. Sono di quelle che si trovano nelle case di periferia: teneri bambini in posa, cani dipinti. La sensazione \u00e8 la stessa di un fratello o una sorella che chiamano per parlare di una questione familiare senza senso quando qualcuno cerca di masturbarsi.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong><em>Im Todestrakt (Nel braccio della morte)<\/em> mostra la scena di una sobria cena attorno ad un tavolo. Appollaiata in un angolo, una donna sta mangiando un gelato e guardando una serie che parla di detenuti nel braccio della morte.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">La realt\u00e0 sembra interrompere la fantasia, o vice versa.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Forse ignorare la realt\u00e0 \u00e8 una nuova forma di condivisione. In un&#8217;altra opera un volto isterico chiede se abbiamo visto il nuovo <em>House of Cards<\/em>.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Questo dualismo corre <strong>attaraverso la pittura di Amelie von Wullfen come un treno di pensieri conflittuali, oscillanti tra impulso e razionalit\u00e0, repressione e apparenza, individuale e universale<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Le decisioni difficili sono messe da parte per lasciare spazio alla scelta del gusto di Magnum o dello show su Netflix. <em>Ragazze dietro le sbarre (M\u00e4dchen hinter Gittern)<\/em>\u00a0<strong><span style=\"color: #ff00ff;\">dipinge un ritratto non solo della lunga e ampia storia della pittura,<span style=\"color: #000000;\"> ma dell\u2019interiorit\u00e0 individuale, dove ciascuno di noi trascorre la maggior parte del suo tempo.<\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Patrick Armstrong<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Amelie von Wulffen<\/strong> \u00e8 nata a Breitenbrunn, in Germania, nel 1966.

Von Wulffen\u2019s latest body of work furthers her yearslong scrutiny of painting as a medium that so often seems to press on without self-awareness.<\/p>\n<p>More than any other approach to art making, painting is venerated for its history, and von Wulffen picks at this edifice from the inside by borrowing from some of the medium\u2019s less sterling chapters. Genre permeates the paintings on view, with von Wulffen incorporating the dimpled lemon rinds of Dutch still life painting and the ribbony brushwork of expressionism. She utilizes the brown hued bluntness of the German palette \u2013 a favorite of 18th century genre painters through to Anselm Kiefer \u2013 as if it were a genre all its own. The lower brow echelons of painting are not omitted \u2013 there are passages clearly inspired by the mass produced, holiday-souvenir variety of painting.<\/p>\n<p>In one work, the same clich\u00e9 vignettes are painted over and over again like a compulsive tic. One depicts a street corner and the other an autumn landscape, two of the medium\u2019s more quintessential subjects. On top is a nude reaching for an orange. These are they types of things that children imagine artists making, but not what they actually do. In painting them, von Wulffen simultaneously allows herself a short respite from reality and illustrates the chasm between different understandings of the medium. Painting has a broader and stranger definition than we often acknowledge and it is called to perform in myriad contexts, many of which have been effectively chased out of town, but not here.<\/p>\n<p>A still life collects the usual silver jugs, glass bottles and half peeled lemon, but two framed photos spoil the historic setting with their contemporaneity. They are the variety seen in suburban homes: cute kids posing, panting dogs. The sensation is like a brother or sister calling to talk about some meaningless family drama while one is trying to masturbate. Another painting pictures a somber dinner table scene. Perched in the corner is a woman eating an ice cream and watching a series about prisoners on death row. Reality seems to interrupt fantasy, or is it vice versa. Perhaps ignoring reality is a new form of universality. A hysteric head in another painting asks if we\u2019ve seen the new <em>House of Cards<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>This opposition runs through von Wulffen\u2019s paintings like a conflicted train of thought, wavering between impulse and reason, repression and facade, personal and universal. Difficult decisions are furloughed in favor of which flavor Magnum or Netflix show to choose. \u2018Ragazze dietro le sbarre\u2019 paints a portrait not only of the long, strange history of painting, but of interiority, where all of us spend the majority of our time.<\/p>\n<p>Patrick Armstrong<\/p>\n<p><strong>Amelie von Wulffen<\/strong> was born in Breitenbrunn, Germany in 1966.
