HELLMUTH WEISSENBORN

The painter, illustrator, and wood engraver Hellmuth Weissenborn (1898-1982) was a German exile who fled to the United Kingdom in 1939, where he became a successful book illustrator, freelance graphic artist, and private press publisher along with his wife Lesley Macdonald. When Weissenborn died, Macdonald donated all of his wood and Perspex blocks to John and Rosalind Randle’s Whittington Press. These blocks have been used extensively by the press over the years.

The first 7 images shown here are hand-colored prints from Weissenborn’s blocks printed at Whittington for a broadside titled Malá Zahrada Vysázená pro Matrix 26 Hellmuthem Weissenbornem, printed on handmade Czech Velké Losiny paper in 2006 in an edition of 80 copies. Another uncolored version of the broadside was folded into the Whittington Press’s journal for printers and bibliophiles Matrix 26 for an article by Amsterdam bookseller Willem Keizer on the “Hand-made Paper from Velké Losiny” printed in an edition of 760 copies, Winter 2006, pp 113-118.This issue also includes an article by William Waterhouse on the Weissenborn family, “Musicians and Graphic Artists: the Weissenborns of Leipzig and London,” pp. 159-164.The last three images include wood engravings from Matrix 26 by Helmuth Weissenborn.

Our copies of both the broadside and the journal Matrix are another generous donation from our friend Jerry Buff.

Why Pocket Nines Are Called 'Phil Hellmuth'?

Phil Hellmuth is a highly successful professional poker player who has won numerous World Series of Poker (WSOP) bracelets. However, he is often associated with pocket nines (a pair of nines as hole cards) due to a famous hand he played during the 1989 WSOP Main Event.

In that particular hand, Hellmuth famously made a remarkable call with pocket nines against Johnny Chan, a two-time WSOP Main Event champion. Hellmuth correctly read Chan's hand and made a heroic call that led to him winning the tournament and becoming the youngest Main Event champion at the time.

Since then, pocket nines have been sometimes referred to as the "Phil Hellmuth" hand or associated with his successful play. It's important to note that this association is more of a nod to Hellmuth's memorable moment and achievement rather than an established hand name recognized throughout the poker community.

THE DARK ART OF SASCHA SCHNEIDER

Sascha Schneider (1870-1927) was a German Symbolist painter known for his dark, homoerotic works exploring themes of power, desire, and the occult. His mind was plugged into another part of the dark side that many of us will never know

Hypnosis, 1904

In this painting, the powerful muscular figure is sending out mesmerizing forces of energy over the more passive counterpart, therefore embodying tension between dominance and submission. Much of this composition was greatly influenced by Schneider's personal struggles with his identity and relationships, especially in his rocky affair with fellow artist Hellmuth Jahn.

Judas Iscariot, 1908

This is the portrayal of Judas in a moment of intense inner turmoil right after his betrayal of Christ. This work adheres to the themes related to guilt and betrayal. Schneider, who suffered rejection from society due to his sexuality, may have related to Judas' struggles, with the tension that lay between personal identity and societal expectations.

Triumph of darkness, 1896

This is a piece showing a powerful figure coming out, so to speak, of what could be interpreted as a dark, swirling mass, symbolizing the fight against despair and embracing one's subconscious. Dominance over darkness by the figure can be equated with Schneider's quest for self-acceptance and artistic liberty, especially being gay in a rather conservative society.

Mammon and his Slave c. 1896

This artwork depicts a dominating powerful male figure, Mammon, the demon of greed, over a small, emaciated figure (enslaved human soul). In it, one sees Schneider's expressions on how materialism can vitiate the human spirit. Being gay in a repressive society, he would likely identify the enslaved figure with his own struggle for self-acceptance.

The Anarchist 1894

The muscular male figure, epitomizes the archetype of an anarchist standing in an attitude of defiance against norms and constraints of society.This is an important theme to the artist, which concerns the quest for freedom and self-expression; thus, The Anarchist is a strong social commentary about individuality and standing up against oppression.
