  • Опубликовано: 17 авг 2024
  • Polish artist Wilhelm Sasnal is a prolific painter and filmmaker whose vivid images draw on the mass media, the intimate experience of family life and the darkest chapters of Polish history. A child of the punk era and the fall of the Berlin Wall, he's insatiably curious about the modern world and unafraid to confront the powers that be and the most taboo subjects.

    I wish people commenting on this series would understand that without all of the different points of view of gallerists and curators and critics we wouldn't even know who this person is, and maybe not even have a series like this to begin with. As a working artist myself I have to appreciate people like these because they help advocate, challenge, encourage, and inspire people like me because they have the depth of experience that can tell us their thoughts using contextual knowledge that goes beyond what people outside of the art world can offer. If any of these people truly didn't care they wouldn't bother giving feedback at all.

    I find it rather disingenuous when people who have a financial interest in an artist's work, comment on how genius the work is.

      Would you rather they criticize it? What makes it disingenuous? The fact that they discovered his work, had interest in it, supported it and worked to get his work out to the world should tell you that maybe, they actually like the work.

      uh sorry name dropper... he is far too young and undeveloped to be even the water boy for the players you mention. The painting is interesting intellectually... but rather mediocre technically.That doesn't mean with 30 or 40 years continued hard work he might become his version of those talents you mention, But looking today he is very minor league as a painter as yet... despite what the art market claims.

    The substance and the style of Wilhelm's work is the epitome of today's soulless Western intellectual-android.
    Thus, instead of doing real research, self-reflection and revisioning human civilization as not perfect (which will never be the case anyway) as that is inherent in human nature along with society's structure and perhaps subsequently breaking-through to a new Age as it is the case in physics, for example, with quantum computing, that android is drowning itself in an orgy of self-depravation, self-mutilation into transhumanism and self-decadence of human soul.
    The saddest thing is that at this stage of hibernation that Android can only listen to punk rock, Bob Marley and other alternative music as sorta vaccine against [humanism] itself.

      Completely disagree with you. What do you do? Can you draw a straight line? I am sorry but soulless is you with this kind of comment. Why don't you do the research you suggest yourself and show us something interesting? Who are you? Wilhelm Sasnal is one of the finest European artist.

    • @shpazhist
      @shpazhist 7 лет назад +1

      +Cliff DaRiff: Communism was an utopia; however, at least it had a model for happiness.
      What is really happiness in today's world? To become another mindless consumer full of goodies but without a real dream for happiness? To play a stereotypical role of happy faces in instagram doing something within that bourgeoisie liberal marketing target market model: i.e. partying for youth, happy family in middle ages, old couple in the old age? But to be a total neurotic freak face to face when sitting in psychiatrist office?
      Don't get me wrong, I do completely understand your stereotypical model of thinking as well as Wilhelm's. Perhaps, his main achievement is really capturing the moment for such search through the expression of such decadence. However, on the other hand, I do not see personally in his work really the notion of artistic substance, I do not see the new artistic forms delivering that from technical perspective and lastly I do not see in that even an attempt for that that only exists in a real spirit, mind you not a soul, to be more precise about my previous comment

      and what the fuck thats supposed to mean: " do not see personally in his work really the notion of artistic substance, I do not see the new artistic forms delivering that from technical perspective and lastly I do not see in that even an attempt for that that only exists in a real spirit, mind you not a soul, to be more precise about my previous comment".
      jeez to be more precise hahaha.
      ok you are also an expert in the fields of art...
      you know one step after the other. I think sasnal is doing quite a good job in capturing the problems we create as a human mankind, maybe not finding a new quantum physics theorie, but anyway.
      and dont you think you comments make me nuts, I just find them a bit shallow and boring.
