"The Jesus Scandal: A Liebermann Painting in the Crossfire of Critics"

HAMBURG.- The
exhibition The Jesus
Scandal at the Hamburger
Kunsthalle centres on an oil
painting of pivotal
standing, The Twelve-Year-Old Jesus in the Temple, 1879. One of most
important
works by Max Liebermann (1847–1935), it is being highlighted to mark the
75th
anniversary of the artist’s death. When the artist showed the painting
for the
first time in 1879 at the Munich International Art Exhibition it sparked
a
scandal. Contemporary critics took offence that the Jewish painter
should dare
to address the Christian theme of the “twelve-year-old Jesus in the
temple”,
especially as he depicted the Saviour as a “Jewish urchin” off the
streets. Liebermann was admonished for having strayed too far
from the
traditional portrayal of the young Christ as a divine youth and of his
intellectual superiority over the Jewish scholars.

About poitevin jerome


jerome poitevin

Jerome Poitevin is a transmedia digital artist at the intersection of computer art and contemporary new media art with internet. He follows this with research into aesthetics, based primarily around a study of the work of Jack Wesley Burnham, Walter Benjamin and Joseph Nechvatal. Aside from his artworks, which are often embedded in the mass media and use internet as a raw material, Jerome Poitevin explores the profound impact of digital technologies on aesthetic experience affecting the way artists work and think, or see. Research concentrations range from virtual synthesis to algorithmic processes, and the ways in which their productions are distributed and communicated, affected like viruses.Designed around new models of creative practices and discovery at the frontier of visual art and engineering, Jerome Poitevin follows a new generation of artists by promoting the invention of new forms of fine art that synthesize advances in digital computing, engineering, and information technologies. Thus, he shows that his artwork is refinement of the digital art combined commitment to aesthetics and technology.

Jerome Poitevin uses computers to manipulate many other images which relate to digial art and new mass media. He uses shapes generated by a computer to make images on the computer screen and he experiments with ways to superimpose multiple images onto another image in an effect of a collage. He combines images in a fine art prints in limited edition.Visual artist Jerome Poitevin
