“The American? Way“ from Venice to Napoli
Three artworks of my series „The American? Way“, which were presented in August 2016 at Scoletta di San Zaccaria in Venice were selected by art director and curator Antonio Manfredi for the exhibition „SURVIVAL“that takes place at CAM | Casoria Contemporary Art Museum.
SURVIVAL

Series THE AMERICAN? WAY
Who does not know Popeye, Mickey Mouse, Superman, Daisy Duck, Hulk, Fritz the Cat, Yosemite Sam – to name just some of the stars of the comic genre.
The comic genre is responding for a long time on the trends and diversifying needs of a changing society and deals with issues such as racism, poverty, drug addiction, war, etc.
In the series “THE AMERICAN? WAY” I question whether the real society is a replica or model for the comic genre?
Is the desire of the „Little Man“ to be a superhero in society now the model for the figure of the „Superman“, or do the attributes of „Superman“ wake the longing to be like he is?
The from the beginning of the USA developed „American Way of Life“, characterized by optimism, activity, individualism, love of freedom and the pursuit of wealth according to the motto „COST WHAT IT MAY!“ – Worthwhile?

LIQUID (ST)ATION
HERWIG MARIA STARK, LIQUID (ST)ATION, Catalogue Raisonné no. 2008_10, size: 160 x 105 x 4,5 cm, mixed media (charcoal, acrylics) on Belgian canvas
Con I „liquid (St)ation“ Herwig Maria Stark mostra un gruppo di persone, all’interno del quale ognuno cerca di affermarsi in modo apparentemente individuale. Sullo sfondo grattacieli, simboli del potere economico politico e sociale, si ergono contro un cielo flemmatico e, gonfi di aria splendente come liquido viscoso, sembrano svanire, mutare, ritrovare una nuova forma – invadono la mente della gente. Il gruppo di persone schierato in prima linea mostra diversi aspetti della società descritta da Zygmunt Bauman.
Abbiamo il sostenitore della società moderna del consumismo, I’ Infiammato predatore dell’economia, il filosofo dubbioso, l’umile agnostico, il giovane sradicato e la femminilità frustrata. Ma non sarebbe un vero STARK se in tutto questo caos non ci fosse un barlume di speranza. Il seme del nuovo inizio è già stato seminato e l’egocentrico bambino, ancora dormiente, protetto e custodito, crescerà ed aprirà nuove strade. (Elisabeth Rass)

Neue Serie – THE AMERICAN? WAY
THE AMERICAN? WAY
Wer kennt nicht Popeye, Mickey Mouse, Superman, Daisy Duck, Hulk, Fritz the Cat, Yosemite Sam – um nur einige der Stars des Comic-Genre zu nennen.
Das Comic-Genre reagiert über eine lange Zeit auf die Strömungen und verändernden Bedürfnisse einer sich wandelnden Gesellschaft und setzt sich mit Problemen wie Rassismus, Armut, Drogensucht, Krieg, etc. auseinander.
In der Serie „THE AMERICAN? WAY“ hinterfrage ich, ob die reale Gesellschaft eine Nachbildung oder Vorbild für das Comic-Genre ist?
Ist die Sehnsucht des „Kleinen Mannes“ ein Superheld in der Gesellschaft zu sein nun das Vorbild für die Figur des „Superman“, oder wecken die Eigenschaften des „Superman“ die Sehnsucht.
Der seit Bestehen der USA sich entwickelte „American Way of Life“, geprägt von Optimismus, Aktivität, Individualismus, Freiheitsliebe und dem Streben nach Wohlstand nach dem Motto „Koste es was es wolle!“ – erstrebenswert?
