Stéphane Mandelbaum, “Rainer (Portrait de Rainer Werner Fassbinder) (Rainer [Portrait of Rainer Werner Fassbinder]),” c. 1984. Graphite, charcoal, and color pencil on paper, 58 1/4 x 42 9/16 inches (148 x 108.5 cm). Private collection. Photo: Vincent Everarts © Stéphane Mandelbaum Estate
Lauded as a central figure in New German Cinema, Rainer Werner Fassbinder directed over 41 films as well as numerous television series and plays over the course of his 17-year career. His work spanned genres, from science fiction and comedy to gangster films and quieter meditations on social dynamics. With his Cannes International Critics Prize-winning film "Ali: Fear Eats the Soul," he solidified his reputation as a director who tackled the complex and difficult realities of life, among them power imbalances, racial prejudice, the experiences of migrant workers, and sexuality. Complementary to the issues he wrestled with in his films, Fassbinder gave deliberately provocative interviews and maintained a public persona marked by scandal and tyrannical control over his productions. Fassbinder’s open bisexuality added to his reputation as a provocateur and was made evident in his films and in public relationships with funders and actors. His most prolific period, from 1969 to 1982, was cut short when he died from a drug overdose at the age of thirty-seven. Stéphane Mandelbaum based this drawing on a still from Fassbinder’s 1975 film "Faustrecht der Freiheit (Fox and His Friends)." The film features Fassbinder in the lead role of Fox, a working class gay man who, upon winning the lottery, falls in with his new lover’s crowd of bourgeois friends who remorselessly exploit his sudden wealth. The work is on view in the current exhibition "Stéphane Mandelbaum." @ drawingcenter

Stone, 1945-7 Kurt Schwitters
- ou pintura sobre coração -
isso é um coração: uma pedra de 50 por 85 por 92 milímetros pintada por suaves gestos de branco e vermelho
no outro extremo do amor, o azul pálido de melancolia.
