Lot 411 | Ulrich Hachulla (Heydebreck 1943). End of a Career.
1977. Mixed media/fibre board. 150 x 100 cm. Lo. middle monogr. and dat. UH 77, on the reverse titled on artist's label, on the frame label of the Triennale der Realistischen Malerei Sofia. The King is dead! When Elvis died on 16.8.1977 on his estate Graceland in Memphis, a shock wave of mourning, hysteria and adoration went around the planet, not only in the western world. Probably never before had a musician been shown such devoted, almost religious veneration. Hachulla shows him at his best, some of his fans enraptured to the point of bewilderment. Hachulla also puts the tired star in the picture in a small format. All that is the past, as the veiled blue hue indicates. The present after Elvis' death, in color, belongs to the managers, journalists and businessmen. Hachulla has enough critical distance to show himself as one of them by putting his initials on the hat-wearer's wristwatch. - Exhibitions: The painting was exhibited: Ulich Hachulla: Malerei. Graphik. Staatliches Museum Schwerin 1987; Triennalle of Realistic painting, Sofia. - Literature: The painting ist publishes with ill. in: Ulich Hachulla: Malerei. Graphik. Staatliches Museum Schwerin 1987, p. 37 und p. 72. - German painter and graphic artist. H. studied at the Academy of Visual Arts in Leipzig from 1963-68, among others with Werner Tübke and Bernhard Heisig. In 1972 he resumed his studies as Tübke's master student. After leading the graphic class of his college since 1974, he became a professor there in 1993. H. received numerous awards. His painterly work takes up a neo-objective formal language in the tradition of Christian Schad and Otto Dix, as with the latter always combined with a socially critical statement intention. In his graphic work H. proves to be a rediscoverer and renewer of old techniques. Mus.: Leipzig, Dresden, Rostock, Györ, Cairo a. others.
