Movies I watched this week - 37

Robert Bresson’s philosophical Pickpocket, inspired both by Raskolnikov from ‘Crime and Punishment’ and by Camus ‘The Stranger’. And in turn it inspired Paul Schrader, the other conflicted Christian filmmaker. Austere and mysterious.

✴️

And so 3 by Paul Schrader (all starring Willem Dafoe):

✳️✳️✳️ The Card Counter, Schrader’s new masterpiece. A tortured soul seeking redemption in a ‘ballet of violence’, just like in many of his previous films. The part of the torture program in Abu Ghraib is tailored a bit too close to the real Mitchell / Jessen psychopaths. But OK. 8+ / 10

✳️✳️✳️ Affliction, a completely different set up: Nick Nolte’s turns into his drunk, abusive father in a cold New Hampshire winter. A sad story of how a family curse is passed through generations, without redemption. His poor daughter...

✳️✳️✳️ Auto Focus, atypical light Schrader pastiche about murdered actor Bob Crane’s friendship with John Henry Carpenter. Crane’s sexual obsession must have been the appeal to Schrader. Told as an uncanny pastel joke, that hides a dark and disturbed core.

✴️

First watch: Sergei Parajanov’s homoerotic The Color of Pomegranates (1969), a stunning visual poem of nearly-ethnographic Armenian tableaux. Reminds me of Jodorowsky. The inspiration to Tarsem’s music video for R.E.M.'s ‘Losing My Religion’.

(Photo above)

✴️

In 1965-66 American-backed anti-communist militias tortured and executed up to a million ‘enemies of the state’ in mass killings in Indonesia.

The Act of Killing is a 2012 terrifying Danish documentary where a group of these now-old death-squad leaders recreate and reenact their actions from that time.

Indonesia, it seems, is not a very enlightened country.

The most original film of the week.

✴️

Sofia Coppola’s Somewhere, a privileged father-daughter drama. A new superstar actor lives at the Chateau Marmont, and spends some time with his 11 year old daughter. Contemplative with Coppola’s usual slow, long shots style, but pointless and bland. The parent-daughter part was OK, but the Hollywood-fame portion was uninteresting. Even the hot pole-dancing Playboy twins were not exiting.

✴️

“Ah, the smell of goulash!”

First watch: Lubitsch’s That uncertain feeling, 1941 erotic comedy, full of sexual innuendos and double entendres that the Hays Code didn’t catch.

“Phooy!”

✴️

Truffaut’s 4th film, The Soft Skin, with Catherine Deneuve’s dead sister, Françoise Dorléac. A married man falls in love with a young stewardess. After 3 New Wave originals, this was derided as a “bourgeois melodrama” and was a commercial failure.

Always with Georges Delerue’s music.

✴️

Orson Welles’s existentialist The Trial, based on Kafka’s novel. Starring unconvincing and too young-looking Anthony Perkins as a man accused of a crime he didn’t commit and which he doesn’t understand. Also with Jeanne Moreau. One literary bad dream with lots of absurdist going-ons. It all hinges on K’s feelings of guilt.

✴️

A different kind of a bad dream, the ultimate Orange County, CA very black “comedy” Very Bad Things. Like ‘The Hangover’, but worst-case-scenario bad.

✴️

Recommended by my mom:

The Hundred Foot Journey, a predictable restaurant-porn about the second Michelin star in a “little, quaint French village”. By Lasse Hallström, who specializes in this kind of international fairy tales, and Oprah Winfrey. Commercial clichés and stereotypical tropes. 2/10

✴️

"You're a cookie full of arsenic"...

Sweet Smell of Success - 2 slimy operators, “publicist” Tony Curtis and influential gossip columnist Burt Lancaster unethically conspire to destroy a jazz musician in a gritty Manhattan Noir. Another sizzling Ernest Lehman manuscript.

✴️

Barry Levinson paid tribute to ��Sweet Smell of Success’ in his debut feature Diner, with one of the kids wandering around saying nothing but lines from the film. So I watched it again. What a wonderful piece of triple nostalgia (1959-1982-2021). Perfect in every sense, especially when showing unexpected sides to each character: Boogie doing hair, Billy playing the piano, Eddie dancing at the strip club.

“You’re gonna finish this?”

Best film of the week!

✴️

Best Sellers, the new Michael Caine vehicle. He’s a cranky, washed-up, bitter author, who’s drunk the whole time. His orange cat is the only other good thing in this lame “comedy”. With a horrible Aubrey Plaza. 2/10

✴️

2 X Vanya’s:

✳️✳️✳️ The 2020 British stage adaptation of Chekhov’s Uncle Vanya, with Toby Jones as Vanya, and Roger Allam as the professor. It deals with purposeful life, beauty, money, and one of the first discussions of ecological problems in world literature.

✳️✳️✳️ I’m glad I waited to watch Louis Malle’s last film, Vanya on 42nd Street, after the BBC version. Even though it was filmed 26 years earlier, it was much more contemporary. The combined talents of David Mamet, Andre Gregory and Malle modernized the play into a brilliant whole. Wallace Shawn was great! 8/10

✴️

Chaplin’s delightful 1922 Pay Day, first (?) tramp film where he has a (nasty, harping) wife.

✴️

U Turn, Oliver Stone’s sadistic, disgusting and pointless mess. Sean Penn is a permanently unlucky schmuck, who “pulls up to a tiny no place in the Arizona desert”. Bad Tarantino clone.

Thanks a lot for the recommendation, Sammy! 1/10

✴️

Because Norm Macdonald died today, I watched his Dirty Work. A grave mistake! His dry humor was good for a few sardonic one liners, but not for this stupid, sophomoric loser. 0/10

✴️

42 enjoyable minutes of a crash course on fromage, how to cut it and how to serve it.

Here. The Black Presence in Western Art

This month, the Rembrandt Museum in Amsterdam opened a new exhibition entitled HERE. BLACK IN REMBRANDT’S TIME. The exhibition overlaps with The Hyde Collection’s presentation of the art of an accomplished, but little known, African American artist, Dox Thrash (1893-1965): DOX THRASH, BLACK LIFFE AND THE CARBORUNDUM MEZZOTINT. The Thrash exhibition is the first of three successive winter shows at The Hyde that will highlight African American art.

Dox Thrash (American, 1893–1965), The Champ, c. 1937–39, aquatint, private collection

I began this series with Dox Thrash, in part, because, as an artist, he fits neatly into the styles and history of western art that we know so well at The Hyde. He trained at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago in the western tradition. Henry Ossawa Tanner (1859-1937), whose portrait by Thomas Eakins graces the main stairs in Hyde House, was an inspiration to Thrash. Indeed, he may have met Tanner in France following the end of World War I, in which Thrash served and was wounded.

Thomas Eakins, (American, 1844-1916), Portrait of Henry O. Tanner, ca. 1897, oil on canvas, 29 5/8 x 26 x 2 1/4 in. The Hyde Collection, Glens Falls, NY. Gift of Charlotte Pruyn Hyde, 1971.16.

Inspired by the Harlem Renaissance, Thrash was driven to make black life - his childhood experiences in rural George, his time on the road “ho-boing” (to use his term) as a vaudeville performer, and his professional life as an leading citizen of the black community in Philadelphia - the subject of art. Almost alone among African American artists of his day, Thrash appropriated the European tradition of the reclining female nude for the black female body. We see this most assertively in Thrash’s print Siesta (ca 1944-48), which was inspired by John Vanderlyn’s infamous painting, Ariadne Asleep on the Island of Naxos (1809–14). Vanderlyn’s painting, although clearly within the European tradition established in the Renaissance by such a master as Titian - think of his Venus of Urbino (1538) at the Uffizi Gallery - scandalized Protestant ,and particularly Quaker, Philadelphia. Thrash’s reclining nude is proudly African American. Images of the black female nude had long be problematic in American art and society because of the country’s history of abusing enslaved women.

Detail: Dox Thrash, (American, 1893–1965), Siesta, ca. 1944–48, carborundum mezzotint, on loan from Dolan/Maxwell

John Vanderlyn (American, 1776-1852), Ariadne Asleep on the Island of Naxos, 1809–14, oil on canvas, 68½ x 87 in. Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts, 1809–14. © Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts.

A particularly powerful section of the exhibition contains Thrash’s portraits of African Americans. Most are not identified; rather, they have titles such as Woman in Blue (1940s) and Head of a Young Man (1940-50). Yet they are painted with such a powerful sense of character. These are clearly portraits of people Thrash knew personally. Their individualism shines through. Sporting a stylish hat, she is not a mammy; dressed in a tie, he is not a laborer – the two characteristic professions given to African Americans in the overwhelming White, racist media. These are successful, proud, self-confident members of the black urban middle class.

Dox Thrash (American, 1893–1965), Woman in Blue, 1940s, watercolor, private collection

In that they are without specific identities and represent a type, such images by Thrash relate to a well-established genre in European painting, the tronie. Particularly popular in the seventeenth century, the tronie was a type of genre painting in portrait format. It was an artistic exercise in the depiction and capture of human states and emotions, such as old age, anger, and laughter. The emphasis was upon the realistic portrayal of the particular emotion without necessarily conveying a sense of the individual or the model. Leonardo da Vinci (1454-1519) frequently juxtaposed tronies of old age and youth in his sketchbooks.

Both Peter Paul Rubens (1577-1640) and Rembrandt Van Rijn (1606-1669) painted tronies. But both also captured something of the character and identity of their live models.

When Rembrandt first settled in Amsterdam in 1632, he lived on Judenbeestraat (Jewish Broad Street) in a house that is now the Rembrandt House Museum. He not only befriended Jewish intellectuals like Samuel Menasseh ben Israel, whose portrait he etched in 1636, but he drew tronies based upon his Jewish neighbors. These he employed in his paintings of Biblical scenes, as Pharisees, high priests, and the like to lend his images an air of historical accuracy.

Among the neighbors who sat for Rembrandt so that he could develop his stock of characters were members of Amsterdam’s small African community. They too lived in the Judenbreestraat district. Although the Netherlands was heavily involved in the slave trade, Dutch law did not recognize slavery on Dutch soil. Scholars associated with the Rembrandt House Museum’s new exhibition have documented the lives of approximately 100 Africans living in Amsterdam. Most of the women worked as servants, many in the households of Sephardic Jews exiled from Spain and Portugal, two European countries that recognized the state of slavery on their soil. Many of the men were Brazilian sailors, who presumably jumped ship when they arrived in port to claim their freedom.

The exhibition contains seven Rembrandt images and forty-nine works by his contemporaries. The works are noteworthy for their lack of racist caricature and stereotyping. Many of the characters are represented with sympathy and compassion. They are ennobled by everyday jobs rather than disempowered, as so often in eighteenth-century portraiture, by appearing as servants.

In our collection, we have a superb painting that epitomizes this moment in seventeenth-century Europe when Africans were seen and recorded with sympathy and compassion, as individual human beings before the onset of racial stereotyping. The painting is my personal favorite in the collection, Rubens’ stunning Head of a Moor (ca.1618).

Peter Paul Rubens, (Flemish, 1577-1640), Head of a Moor, ca. 1620, oil on panel, 29 3/4 × 26 1/2 in. The Hyde Collection, Glens Falls, NY, Gift of Charlotte Pruyn Hyde, 1971.40.

Like any other tronie, this is an artistic exercise for Rubens. He is trying to solve the question, as a master colorist: How do I convincing render the face of an African man? It will not do for him to simply warm up a brown, add some white for highlights and black for shadows, as European artists had done in generations past. Compare Ruben’s head with the African magus in The Hyde’s Adoration of the Magi by an Antwerp Mannerist, ca. 1520. Rubens uses a stroke of red to define the underside of his African sitter’s chin. Red warms his skin tones in lighted areas. The shadows on the side of his face are made up of strokes of blue-grey and deep blue and black.

Antwerp Mannerist, after Jan de Beer (Flemish, ca.1475 - ca.1528), Adoration of the Magi, ca. 1520, oil on oak panel, 29 x 25 1/4 in. The Hyde Collection, Glens Falls, NY, Bequest of Charlotte Pruyn Hyde, 1971.2.

Rubens knew this man and this was not the first time that he had painted him. The Royal Museums of Fine Arts, Belgium has an oil study in which Rubens examines the same man from four different angles.

That Rubens brought a black man in his studio to sit for him was such a significant event that others in the studio made their own studies. One, by an unknown hand, now hangs at the J. Paul Getty Museum. Anthony Van Dyck, who worked briefly in Rubens’ studio, included a profile drawing of this man smiling on the lower right of a sheet of eleven pen and ink head studies now in the Chatsworth Collection in Britain.

Anthony Van Dyck (Flemish, 1599-1641), Records of Eleven Head Studies, 1618-20, pen and ink, Devonshire Collection, Chatsworth.

Who the man was and how Rubens came to know him and to invite him to his studio at least twice over the course of a few years is not known. In the first half the seventeenth century, Antwerp was Europe’s leading port. Portuguese and Spanish merchants sent their ships directly there from their African and New World colonies. The man may have been a servant or have arrived as a sailor off one of those vessels.

This unknown African was not even the first Rubens painted. While in Rome in 1609, Rubens executed an oil study of an African man wearing a turban. The work is now at the Getty Museum. Shortly thereafter, he used the head to make a free copy of a famous portrait by Jan Cornelisz. Vermeyen (1500-1559) of a Tunisian king, Mulay Ahmad. Rubens’ version survives at the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, though Vermeyen’s is lost.

Peter Paul Rubens (Flemish, 1577-1640), The Head of an African Man Wearing a Turban, 1609–11, oil on paper laid down on panel, 21 1/4 × 15 1/2 in. The J. Paul Getty Museum, 2018.48. Digital image courtesy of the Getty's Open Content Program.

Rubens employed the image of this turbaned African as the model for the Black King in several altarpieces depicting the Adoration of the Magi. A popular subject for altarpieces at the time, the Adoration of the Magi afforded artists one of their few opportunities to paint non-Europeans. In the later Middle Ages, the three kings had come to represent the three known continents. In Counter-Reformation theology, black Africans represented the Gentiles; those around the world willing to receive the Word and become Christians.

Africansalso appeared as attendants in mythological and historical paintings. Rubens used two of the heads from the Brussels oil study in classical paintings: The Drunken Silenus, (1618-25) at the Alte Pinakothek in Munich and Nature Adorned by the Three Graces (ca. 1615) at the Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum, Glasgow. No surviving work has been found that specifically uses the head from The Hyde’s study.

At The Hyde, we will explore the works by African American artists again in the winter of 2021 with the exhibition THE HARMON & HARRIET KELLEY COLLECTION OF AFRICAN AMERICAN ART: WORKS ON PAPER. Dox Thrash will make a return along with other artists who sought to insert the black experience into the European art traditions in which they had been schooled. There will be others, like Horace Pipin and Jacob Lawrence, who used African rather than European models to create a discernibly black art. In the following winter, we will present ROBERT BLACKBURN & AMERICAN PRINTMAKING. This exhibition will highlight the work of this under-represented abstract printmaker, while also placing him in the context of his contemporaries, many of whom were white and are, thus, better known.

The Hyde’s Rubens and Eakins paintings discussed here are on permanent display in Hyde House. In addition, we frequently put on view in the Education Wing Sam Gilliam’s Asking. I hope it will not be too much longer before we can welcome you back to The Hyde and you can explore our works discussed here, in person.

Camp: Notes on Fashion at The Met

“Through more than 250 objects dating from the seventeenth century to the present, The Costume Institute's spring 2019 exhibition explores the origins of camp's exuberant aesthetic. Susan Sontag's 1964 essay "Notes on 'Camp'" provides the framework for the exhibition, which examines how the elements of irony, humor, parody, pastiche, artifice, theatricality, and exaggeration are expressed in fashion.” - The Met

At least once a year, I make my way over to The Met. Partially to see the new rooftop piece and partially to see the new fashion exhibit. And this year’s costume exhibit is vibrant as hell, maybe even better than the exhibit from a few years back Manus x Machina (that I really liked). Here are my favourite pieces:

Above Photo: Cristobal Balenciaga, Evening Dress, autumn/winter 1965-66, dress of pink ostrich feathers and pink silk-thread dots; sash of pink silk satin

Above Photo: Christian Dior, “Tourterelle” Evening Dress, autumn/winter 1948-49, dress of pink iridescent silk taffeta; sash of gray iridescent silk taffeta

Above Photo: Giambattista Valli, Evening Dress, autumn/winter 2017-18, dress of light pink synthetic tulle

Above Photo: Gareth Pugh, Ensemble, spring/summer 2016, top of black silk faille and black cotton-silk net embroidered with copper meal coins; shorts of black cotton twill embroidered with copper metal coins

Above Photo: Gucci, Accessory Set, pre-fall 2019, scarf of polychrome printed silk twill; glasses of black and yellow synthetic, clear crystals, and metal; necklace of pearl beads, clear crystals, and metal

Above Photo: Manish Arora, Ensemble, spring/summer 2009, top of pieced polychrome silk-synthetic plain weave; carousel skirt of pieced polychrome silk-synthetic plain weave and gold and silver silk-Lurex plain weave with orange crystals, polychrome palettes, seed beads, cotton-and-metal thread, and vinyl appliqué

It’s such a colorful collection and it’s really just fun fashion, not terribly pretentious or ridiculous. Definitely go see it if you’re in New York this summer. I aspire to have the style of that Gucci one above.

Even the rooftop piece this year is pretty good, here’s a glimpse.

The Camp exhibit is on view until September 8th, while the rooftop one goes until October 27th.

// Google search Lainey Gossip The Best Films of the Decade (2010s): Part I December 19, 2019 at 6:24 PM by Sarah John Wick movie poster 352687 After months of consideration, and getting so deep in the weeds that the words “best”, “film”, and “decade” have lost all meaning, here it is: my list of the best films of the decade. This list, which was supposed to be 20 films and ended up at 32, is a combination of quality, influence, and gut feeling, but all are films that stand out when looking back on the cinema of the 2010s. As always, this list is alphabetical, not ranked. A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night (2014) An Iranian-Western-vampire genre mashup, Girl is strange, creepy, feminist, and at times, achingly romantic. This is also the first film on the list that marks a decade trend of women claiming genre spaces to do brilliant, inventive work. A Hidden Life (2019) Terrence Malick has wrestled with themes of human suffering, perseverance, and religious fervor throughout his career, and A Hidden Life is his most perfect expression of beatific suffering yet. It’s also a timely story about standing up to Nazis, which gives Life an immediate resonance Malick’s films don’t usually carry. A Simple Favor (2018) Satirizing everything from Cool Girl thrillers to the true crime craze to mommy bloggers, A Simple Favor is a black comedy that also works as a (completely batsh-t) mystery. This movie has everything: secret twins, incest, a series of increasingly insane plot twists, and some of the best contemporary artistic design of the decade. The Act of Killing (2012) Co-directed by Joshua Oppenheimer, Christine Cynn, and an anonymous Indonesian, The Act of Killing is a portrait, made terrifying by the relative mundanity of these men’s lives today, of some of the men who led death squads during the Indonesian killings of 1965-66. The men recreate their atrocities as classic film scenes, until one man pretends to be a victim in a scene and then simply cannot go on. It is a testament to the power of cinema, and of stories to evoke empathy, even where you believe no feeling can exist. The Avengers (2012) I can hear you, Black Panther hive, and believe me, I thought about it. But the fact is, there is no Black Panther without The Avengers. This is the film that started it all, and it had an immeasurable impact on Hollywood, setting records previously thought impossible, giving audiences a once-in-a-generation experience, and popularizing the blockbuster cinematic universe. That it holds up as an entertaining, thrilling adventure is almost just a bonus. The Babadook (2014) Jennifer Kent’s debut feature film is either a horror movie about a haunting, or it’s a domestic drama about grief and mental illness. Either way, this is one of the creepiest, most unsettling genre films of the decade, and it also gave us one of the most memorable sound effects since a tyrannosaurus rex roared. Blue Ruin (2013) This is not the sleek, sexy revenge of typical Hollywood thrillers. Jeremy Saulnier’s Blue Ruin is bleak, brutal, and spare, with a protagonist shattered by trauma and whose revenge is uncoordinated, sloppy, and carries an inter-generational price. This is the best case against backwoods justice since Reba McEntire sang, “That’s the night the lights went out in Georgia”. Carol (2015) A romance that is at once universal and achingly specific to the roadblocks and repressions of queer women in the middle 20th century, Carol typifies Todd Haynes’ rich, detailed style and intimate sense of drama. Romantic, intimate, and infuriating, Carol captures how simple it is to fall in love and how hard it is to be in love, especially when society does not accept you. Compliance (2012) A gut-wrenching, almost impossible to watch psychological thriller/horror movie, Compliance begs you to fact-check its “based on a true story” narrative (it’s terribly, awfully true). No film this decade better captures both the ease with which people surrender their civil liberties to authoritarians, and the ease with which people will stand by and do nothing as a woman is abused. Compliance is as infuriating as it is chilling. The Duke of Burgundy (2015) An erotic S&M fantasy set in a world with no men, The Duke of Burgundy is a lavish exploration of sex, intimacy, and power exchange. Writer/director Peter Strickland uses fetishism to examine a deteriorating relationship and the particular poignancy of a love affair coming to an end. There have been a lot of breakup movies this decade, but none as unique as The Duke of Burgundy. Get Out (2017) A horror comedy that works equally well in either genre, and works even better on second viewing, Get Out is an immediate genre classic. It gave us a new way of thinking of the black experience in America, and also the insidious supremacy of white liberalism. This is one of the sharpest social observations of the decade, and also a really damn good horror movie. The Guest (2014) Stylish, sexy, and violent, The Guest mashes up horror and superhero tropes into a story about a super-soldier gone rogue, who will stop at nothing to cover his tracks. It’s easy to get lost in the aesthetics, but The Guest has something to say about the toll of America’s endless war, and bad men who only pass as good because we’re socially conditioned to accept them. The Handmaiden (2016) Park Chan-wook adapts Sarah Waters’ novel, Fingersmith, into an erotic thriller set in colonial Korea. Using shifting perspective and a twisty, layered crime plot, Park tells a story of colonialism, class, gender, and love that is sexy, smart, romantic, and surprisingly funny. Inherent Vice (2014) Any one of Paul Thomas Anderson’s three feature films this decade could have made this list, but in the end, I chose the film that is the MOST Paul Thomas Anderson. Like if you asked me what PTA’s whole deal is, I would point you to Inherent Vice. Shaggy, strange, and risky, Inherent Vice is a cinematic psychedelic trip that invites multiple viewings. Inside Llewyn Davis (2013) The Coen Brothers also had a couple contenders this decade, but Inside Llewyn Davis is exceptional for the prickliness of its lead character (played by a breakout Oscar Isaac) and the mundane lyricism of his story. This is not a tale of transformational genius, this is a tale of mediocrity and near misses featuring Llewyn Davis, one of contemporary cinema’s greatest cynics. John Wick (2014) Keanu Reeves experienced another career renaissance with John Wick, giving us an immediately indelible, impossibly cool character with the titular John Wick. Sleek, stylish, and with a laughably, yet incredibly effective, streamlined story, John Wick is a high-water mark for American action cinema.

Rallye Schweden: ŠKODA und Kalle Rovanperä kämpfen um Tabellenführung in der WRC 2 Pro-Kategorie

› Mit einem guten Ergebnis können sich Kalle Rovanperä/Jonne Halttunen in der Zwischenwertung der neuen Weltmeisterschaftskategorie an die Spitze setzen › Auch der finnische Meister Eerik Pietarinen und Beifahrerin Juhana Raitanen sind von ŠKODA Motorsport als punkteberechtigt in der Kategorie WRC 2 Pro nominiert › Mit 16 genannten ŠKODA FABIA R5 stellt der tschechische Hersteller mehr als die Hälfte des 30 Teilnehmer starken Feldes der R5-Fahrzeuge

Mladá Boleslav – Bei der Rallye Schweden, dem zweiten Lauf der FIA Rallye-Weltmeisterschaft 2019, schickt ŠKODA Motorsport in der Kategorie WRC 2 Pro am kommenden Wochenende (14. bis 17. Februar 2019) zwei Teams ins Rennen. Der finnische Werksfahrer Kalle Rovanperä und Copilot Jonne Halttunen kämpfen ebenso wie ihre Landsleute Eerik Pietarinen/Juhana Raitanen um die Spitzenposition im Feld der R5-Fahrzeuge, das mit insgesamt 30 Teilnehmern stark besetzt ist. Auf den Hochgeschwindigkeitspisten durch die winterlichen Wälder Schwedens und Norwegens treten in der neu geschaffenen WRC 2 Pro-Kategorie fünf Crews der Marken ŠKODA, Ford und Citroën an.

Bei der Rallye Monte Carlo beeindruckten Kalle Rovanperä und Beifahrer Jonne Halttunen zum Auftakt zur FIA Rallye-Weltmeisterschaft 2019 mit einem unerschütterlichen Kampfgeist. Nachdem sie im ŠKODA FABIA R5 schon in der ersten Wertungsprüfung auf einer vereisten Passage von der Strecke gerutscht waren, starteten sie eine starke Aufholjagd. Im Verlauf der Rallye verbesserten sie sich vom zwischenzeitlich letzten Rang um 66 Positionen. Eerik Pietarinen, ebenfalls aus Finnland, bewies seine Klasse bereits im vergangenen Sommer, als er bei der Rallye Finnland im ŠKODA FABIA R5 die Kategorie WRC 2 gewann. Inzwischen wird er als amtierender Finnischer Meister vom finnischen ŠKODA Importeur unterstützt und ist bei der Rallye Schweden von ŠKODA Motorsport als zweiter offizieller Fahrer des Teams in der Kategorie WRC 2 Pro nominiert. Rovanperä/Halttunen und Pietarinen/Raitanen sind nur zwei von insgesamt 16 Crews, die in Schweden im ŠKODA FABIA R5 antreten. Damit stellt ŠKODA mehr als die Hälfte der 30 genannten R5-Fahrzeuge.

Die Rallye Schweden startet am Donnerstag (14. Februar) um 20:04 Uhr mit einer spektakulären Show-Prüfung auf der komplett vereisten Pferderennbahn von Karlstad im Süden des Landes. Die nur 1,9 Kilometer kurze Prüfung ist der Auftakt zur eigentlichen Rallye, die am Freitagmorgen (15. Februar) beginnt. Wenn die Teams den zentralen Serviceplatz in Torsby um 6:00 Uhr verlassen, liegen weitere drei Tage mit insgesamt 18 Wertungsprüfungen vor ihnen, die sich über knapp 320 Kilometer durch die einsamen Wälder Schwedens und Norwegens winden. Am Sonntag, den 17. Februar, endet die Rallye in der Nähe des Serviceareals in Torsby mit der sogenannten Power-Stage, der Sieger wird gegen 13:00 Uhr auf dem Podium erwartet.

Im Vorfeld der Rallye Schweden hat ŠKODA mit Kalle Rovanperä gesprochen:

Kalle, wenn Sie auf den Saisonauftakt bei der Rallye Monte Carlo zurückschauen, wie lautet Ihr Fazit?

Kalle Rovanperä: „Obwohl ich mir wichtige Zähler für mein Punktekonto in der WRC 2 Pro-Meisterschaft sichern konnte, war das Ergebnis natürlich nicht gerade das, was ich mir ausgerechnet hatte. Nach unserem Missgeschick auf der ersten Wertungsprüfung, als wir in einen Graben rutschten, fuhren wir einige gute Zeiten. Wie auch immer, die Erfahrungen der diesjährigen Rallye Monte Carlo werden mir sicherlich in der Zukunft helfen.“

Was sind Ihre Erwartungen für die Rallye Schweden?

Kalle Rovanperä: „Ich fahre diese Rallye zum ersten Mal. Aber ich liebe es, auf Eis und Schnee zu fahren, und freue mich wirklich auf die Veranstaltung. Um in Schweden zu gewinnen, muss man absolut am Limit fahren und darf sich nicht einen einzigen Fehler leisten.“

Sie fahren bereits die zweite Saison im Team von ŠKODA Motorsport. Was ist Ihr Ziel für 2019?

Kalle Rovanperä: „Im vergangenen Jahr war mit Ausnahme der Rallye Großbritannien jeder WM-Lauf neu für mich. Dieses Jahr kann ich von den Erfahrungen profitieren, die ich während der sieben WM-Rallyes gesammelt habe, die ich 2018 gefahren bin. Aber ich muss noch viel lernen. Die Rallye Schweden ist, wie gesagt, neu für mich. Ich kann es kaum erwarten, mich zusammen mit meinem Beifahrer Jonne Halttunen in den Wettbewerb zu stürzen. Unser ŠKODA FABIA R5 ist genauso gut vorbereitet wie wir.“

ŠKODA Motorsport hat Sie für die gesamte Saison in der WRC 2 Pro nominiert. Was erwarten Sie von dieser neuen Kategorie innerhalb der Weltmeisterschaft?

Kalle Rovanperä: „Alles, was unseren Sport nach vorne bringt, ist gut. Ich liebe den Wettbewerb, und speziell bei der Rallye Schweden rechne ich mit einem harten Kampf in der WRC 2 Pro und auch im stark besetzten Feld der R5-Fahrzeuge. Mit einem guten Resultat könnte ich die Tabellenführung in der WRC 2 Pro übernehmen. Aber mein vorrangiges Ziel ist es, mit voller Konzentration eine fehlerlose Leistung zu bieten und zu den Schnellsten zu gehören. Ich freue mich wirklich auf die Rallye.“

Wussten Sie, dass…

…die Rallye Schweden zum ersten Mal 1950 veranstaltet wurde und jahrelang als ,Rallye zur Mitternachtssonne‘ im Sommer durchgeführt wurde? Erst seit 1965 findet sie im Winter statt.

… die Temperatur während der Rallye auf unter -25 Grad Celsius fallen kann?

…die Fahrer ihr Auto manchmal absichtlich an den Schneewänden entlang der Strecke anlehnen, um eine höhere Kurvengeschwindigkeit zu erreichen?

…jedes Team eine Schaufel an Bord haben muss, um im Falle eines Ausrutschers sein Auto aus dem Schnee ausgraben zu können?

…die speziellen Schneereifen mit jeweils 384 Spikes gespickt sind, jeder davon 20 Millimeter lang?

…1973 nur Winterreifen ohne Spikes erlaubt waren und der schwedische Lokalheld Stiq Blomqvist den Sieg feierte, obwohl er wegen eines Problems mit der Benzinpumpe schon früh zehn Minuten verloren hatte?

…im Jahr 1993 Pavel Sibera/Petr Gross im ŠKODA FAVORIT 136L die Klasse A5 gewannen?

…alleine die berühmte Sprungkuppe ,Colin’s Crest‘, die nach dem ehemaligen Rallye-Weltmeister Colin McRae benannt ist, Tausende Fans anzieht?
