1. Aufl. Text: engl. - / Ed.: Marianne Boesky Gallery, New York + Gallery, Amsterdam // Adam Helms (born 1974), who studied under Mel Bochner, mentioned a variety of sources, such as portraits from the mercenary magazine »Soldier of Fortune«, John Heartfields collages, the opening credits of Paramount films with their minimally…divergent views of a peak that have formed the basis of the Paramount logo over the years, Gerhard Richters »48 Portraits« for the 1972 Venice Biennale which now hangs in the Museum Ludwig in Cologne and enshrines forty-eight black and white portraits of eminent scientists and cultural personalities dating back to the Enlightenment, or the album covers of the beautifully-named noise label from Michigan, »Gods of Tundra«. Preferring a graphic medium, pencil as well as charcoal, Adam Helms draws upon these sources observationally and works on portrait series, landscapes or poster murals on historical themes. What interests him about these sources in particular is the way in which individuals want to see themselves or indeed their subject matter depicted, indeed, how the »unnameable«, which typology, seizes upon these attempts at self-representation. This provides the emotional introduction for Adam Helms; he fixes the inherent pathos of the sources in his own work, duly penetrating them and thus teasing out the underlying obsessions.
