1️⃣There is no need for any deliberateness, the whole movie is a statement of facts, and it is completely in line with the name! ! Masterless work: The copying of photos by postmodern artists, the copying of "layman" composition and captures of life, directly reflect the truth, deconstructing the narrative and deconstructive meaning of the painting, and it is no different from the straightforward narration of the whole movie. ? ! Without starting, inheriting, turning and digging deeply into things without these formal appearances, the truth itself is shocking, it is a masterless work! 2️⃣From the perspective of the artist, it describes the extreme differences in the development of art in Germany, East Germany and West Germany from World War II to the post-war period, and postmodern artists' search for themselves. Obviously alluding to the film: the beacon-like Boyce, Pollock, Yves Klein, Lucio Fontana, Malevich, a group of modernist painters, and Arthur Danto's final artistic conclusion. In short, it is the self-seeking of postmodern artists under the dual pressure of politics and art history... The final result is that whether it is Pop (Political Pop) or the return of German Neo-Expressionism to painting, they are still in society. It is hoped that the deconstruction of society will return to the real attempt of art. Whether or not Gerhardricht really doesn't matter. 3️⃣First of all, I really love the composition, color and light! Moreover, the strokes and steps of the male protagonist's paintings are indeed drawn by a person with deep drawing skills, rather than "performance". I am very touched by this alone. There are also various hidden allusions. For example, the last portrait of the father-in-law painted is Bacon’s Portrait of Pope Innocent X, with the same expressions, eyes and background atmosphere, and the characters are just as caustic and weak in disguise. It's really a very, very beautiful running account. Finally, I will emphasize: the masterless work! Deconstruction of all dazzling skills! Never look away from reality.
