The Reaper slow and steady wins the race…a couple weeks ago I was studying the iconic print Whetting the Scythe from 1905 by Kathe Kollwitz 1867-1945 depicting a peasant woman at the moment of determined rage just before the German Peasant Revolt of 1522 I’m struck by the cheek pressing against the blade a steely eye anyway it influenced this drawing I made for a friend #drawing #thereaper #skullart #kathekollwitz #pdxartist #portlandartist #gregoryhergert (at Southeast Portland, Portland) https://www.instagram.com/p/CmKSFZmypxd/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Käthe Kollwitz's creative process brought to life, "Sharpening the Scythe"

Love this demonstration of Kollwitz's process for this work. She's one of my favorite artists.

Mistigram: a year ago Russia resumed moving military units into Ukraine, with intent to quickly finish the job they had started nine years ago when they annexed the Crimea, but one can safely say that this time around they encountered stiffer resistance than they were expecting. Cthulu is a pacifist whose position is always that war is the worst solution to a problem that should have been solved any different way, but of course people do not always get the choice of opting into the war in which they find themselves: defending yourself from invaders isn't war, it's survival. With hope that the situation wouldn't immediately escalate to a test range for the world's biggest defense contractors deploying their heaviest arms and turning the country into a muddy, corpse-filled trench that glows in the dark, he thought back to this 1924 antiwar image by #KatheKollwitz, now a year shy of a century old, and reproduced it using #ANSIart blocks. This piece was included in the MIST0222 artpack collection released one year ago. #NeverAgainWar #NieWiederKrieg

Death and Woman (Self-Portrait), 1910, Käthe Kollwitz

What would happen if one woman told the truth about her life?           The world would split open

Today in college I was reading this book on German Expressionist Woodcuts. My project is about memories and the feelings they evoke and I have been looking into the work of Kathe Kollwitz as she also deals with similar themes such as coming to terms with the past. There is something quite creepy about these woodcuts, the subjects in Kollwitz's work particularly appear to be in some form of psychological agony. I want to convey feelings of loss and absence in my work and this book has inspired me to design my own lino cuts.

Käthe Kollwitz, Woman with Dead Child (1903), Intaglio print on paper

paper: 54.5 × 70.3 cm print: 41.2 × 47.1 cm

Käthe Kollwitz is one of my favorite artists because of her complete grasp of displaying emotional anguish within a piece that reaches the viewers of her work. This piece conveys the mother’s grief in the burying of her face, desperately cradling and clinging to her dead child. It is as if she is trying to breathe life back into him or desperately cling to the little life left in the child’s body. I love her exploration into the mother and child motif, a motif that is easily recognized and relatable with or without regard to the motif’s presence in various religions. This display of mother and child speaks to emotions that are more of a solemn and raw response. Kollwitz's work is a strong example of conveying and receiving an emotional response from viewers. I hope that one day my artwork could evoke such emotion.

The People, 1922, Käthe Kollwitz

Mothers (Mütter) - Käthe Kollwitz (German 1867 -1945) 1919 Lithograph

In Mothers, women and children of various ages huddle together, their linked bodies forming a solid structure that fills the composition. Kollwitz drew herself in the center, eyes closed and arms wrapped protectively around her two sons: Hans, the elder, and Peter, who was killed in combat at eighteen. “I have drawn the mother who embraces her two children; I am with my own children, born from me, my Hans and my Peterchen.”

Doris Caesar, “Two Women,” bronze sculpture, 1963. Born to an upper class family who encouraged her artistic inclinations, Caesar ultimately chose sculpture because “it’s big and fights against you.” She originally studied with Alexander Archipenko but found herself drawn to the work of the German Expressionists including Kathe Kollwitz and Wilhelm Barlach. She focused on the female form, and her sculptures became increasingly elongated and thin. She was featured in the 1959 show “Four AMERICAN Expressionists” at the Whitney Museum, which showed 40 of her pieces.

Stanley Donwood ~

Stanley Donwood is a English artist and writer. I love his work personally due to all the colours and the trees he draws. His work reminds me of the walks I took during lockdown, where I would watch the bright sun hit the horizon and see all the magical colours appear. It reminds me of my walk because the use of colours he uses and that he sticks with very bold primary colours. All the colours he uses I would see during my walk. I like that he only uses certain colours as it looks very neat and eye catching. Furthermore, it suits his style of work. For example if he used more bright colours such as rainbows if would ruin the message and mood his work presents. The mood his work produces is quite mysterious and gloomy because of the colour range he uses. I don't dislike anything in his painting I love all the colours he uses, the composition and the mix emotion that his work sends you. 

Kathe Kollwitz ~

Kathe Kollwitz is a German artist and sculptor. I do enjoy looking at her work but its not really my thing. I love her prints but I don’t really like that she always uses black. I understand that her work is all about heartbreak and sadness, however I think it looks dull and gloomy. Which is something I don't really enjoy in art. I love using black in my work but I love to use a splash of colour to make it more pleasing to the eyes. Her work reminds me of the times when I’ve felt the lowest in my life which is something I don’t like to think about. However at the same time I enjoy the remind as it makes me realise how far I’ve come in my journey. Her use of colour don’t really enjoy it makes me feel sad and depressed. I love what she draws though, I like the art where they show the lose that people are suffering as it makes use realise how lucky we truly are. 

Jerry Schutte ~

Jerry Schutte is a printmaker and portrait artist. I love his work the boldness of his work and the detail of all the induvial lines. Each line brings more life to the print. His work reminds me of my love of printmaking because you can create some many different designs with lino and intaglio prints and they come out so bold. I love printmaking and this is why I love his work. The use of colour I like as the black really shows you every bit of detail in his work. I would love to have seen his work in different colours like red or blue as they are still quite bold colours and they would of made this print even better. 

The different between Stanley Donwood and Kathe Kollwitz is that Stanley uses colour whereas Kathe does not. There work means to completely things meaning there colour choices are going to be different. So Kathe uses dark and gloomy colours as her work is quite sad and to make a statement that this is reality we don't all have the happy lives we wont there is sadness too. Whereas Stanley uses bright colours to show the mysterious in his work. Stanley Donwood created Album covers for various different bands. However, Kathe Kollwitz created work to represent poverty, hunger and the war on the working class. Even though these artists create different pieces of work on completely opposite sides of the scales they both do use printmaking to create there breath-taking work which is printmaking. Which is most amazing to me as they both use this amazing technique but there work gives totally different message to there viewers.
