A passion that has never left him and continues to drive him to this day. When talking and working with Haslinger, one quickly notices to what extent he is inspired by a deep love of the art and craft of his profession.<\/p>\n<p>Haslinger started the Tribute to Egon Schiele project ten years ago. Schiele\u2019s works fascinated him even as an art student, the \u201cintensity of expression\u201d captivated the young photographer on several levels. Haslinger began to approach the subject of Schiele on huge canvases, always with the intention of paying homage, never with the intention of copying.<\/p>\n<p>Haslinger invited carefully selected friends, acquaintances and models successively to his studio and photographed them in partly contemporary clothing, sometimes in vintage pieces but also in genuine turn-of-the-century clothing. He spent countless days researching suitable items in theatres, costume rental firms and film equipment and props companies. The range of clothing styles and accessories in his pictures is always intended, tattoos should also remain visible.<\/p>\n<p>Conventional space does not play a role in Schiele\u2019s works. He usually reduced his models to an abstract environment to concentrate on their emotional expression. Haslinger recognized an invitation in the \u201cspacelessness\u201d in Schiele\u2019s works to search for these spaces within himself, with \u201cmind, heart, soul, belly and loins\u201d. Tribute to Egon Schiele can thus be imagined as a journey into the inner spaces of the human being and of humanity. Spaces that are densely filled with a palette of emotional states and perceptions, which are important for Haslinger to trace and express photographically. Introversion and extroversion, constraints and fears, depression and emptiness, rapture and exposure interfere with affectations and extravagances, with eroticism and provocation, in an artistic universe that fascinates to this day and still seems to be expanding.<\/p>\n<p>The photographer\u2019s joy in expressing these emotions and in the dense and intensive work with his models speaks from every single image in the series. In addition, the immense craftmanship and artistic quality is astonishing. At first glance the photos, most of which are extremely elaborate, often appear like paintings or drawings, only to reveal their photographic origin afterwards. It is as if only Haslinger\u2019s homage fully reveals the (photo-) realistic level of Schiele \u2013 and vice versa, only Schiele\u2019s expressiveness reveals that of Haslinger\u2019s works. It is as if they had been waiting for each other.<br \/>\n<em>Wolfgang Kindermann<\/em><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.joachimhaslinger.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">www.joachimhaslinger.com<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","class_list":["post-6406","ausstellungen","type-ausstellungen","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.atelierjungwirth.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/ausstellungen\/6406","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.atelierjungwirth.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/ausstellungen"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.atelierjungwirth.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/ausstellungen"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.atelierjungwirth.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/ausstellungen\/6406\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.atelierjungwirth.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6406"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
