THE 50 MOST MOST FREQUENTLY SELECTED WORKS ADDED TO FAVOURITES

 


MONUMENT TO THE UNBORN WAR HERO
Artist Name: Otto Rapp
Year: 1975
Medium: acrylic on canvas
Dimensions: 102 cm x 86 cm
Artwork Description: One painting that seems to summarize Rapp’s attitude is his MONUMENT TO THE UNBORN WARHERO. A large painting which includes scenes of brutality; tyranny; the soldier in various historical periods; images of Hitler; human sculls; alarming pictures of wolves; warplanes overhead and a very bold nude female figure giving birth to what appears to be a crucified figure of man. It is his visual summary of the consequences of war. Rapp is an accomplished artist, and like so many European artists who have settled in Canada, he has a strong command of modern surrealist imagery. Excerpt from the critique by J. Brooks Joyner, Editor Visual Arts, The Albertan, Saturday, May 29th, 1976
