    By Jon Ronson Sun 26 Oct 2014 https://www.theguardian.com/artanddesign/2014/oct/26/art-fraud-margaret-walter-keane-tim-burton-biopic The big-eyed children: the extraordinary story of an epic art fraud In the 1960s, Walter Keane was feted for his sentimental portraits that sold by the million. But in fact, his wife Margaret was the artist, working in virtual slavery to maintain his success. She tells her story, now the subject of a Tim Burton biopic Margaret Keane at home in Napa, California. For years, she painted portraits of big-eyed children for which her husband took the credit. Photograph: Robert Gumpert for the Guardian here’s a sweet, small suburban house in the vineyards of Napa, northern California. Inside, a family of devout Jehovah’s Witnesses bustles around, offering me a cheese T plate. A Siamese cat weaves in and out of my legs. Everything is lovely. Sitting unobtrusively in the corner is 87-year-old Margaret Keane. “Would you like some macadamia nuts?” she asks. She hands me Jehovah’s Witness pamphlets too. “Jehovah looks after me every day,” she says. “I really feel it.” She is the last person you’d expect to be a participant in one of the great art frauds of the 20th century. This story begins in Berlin in 1946. A young American named Walter Keane was in Europe to learn how to be a painter. And there he was, staring heartbroken at the big-eyed children fighting over scraps of food in the rubbish. As he would later write: “As if goaded by a kind of frantic despair, I sketched these dirty, ragged little victims of the war with their bruised, lacerated minds and bodies, their matted hair and runny noses.

    KELLEY MINOR HISTORIES Statements, Conversations, Proposals MIKE KELLEY edited by John C. Welchman What John C. Welchman calls the “blazing network of focused conflations” from which Mike Kelley’s styles are generated is on display in all its diversity in this second volume of his writings. The first volume, Foul Perfection, contained thematic essays and writings about other artists; this collection concentrates on Kelley’s own work, ranging from texts in “voices” that grew out of scripts for performance pieces to expository critical and autobiographical writings. Minor Histories organizes Kelley’s writings into five sections. “Statements” consists of twenty pieces produced MINOR between 1984 and 2002 (most of which were written to accompany exhibitions), including “Ajax,” which draws on MIKE KELLEY Homeric epic, Colgate-Palmolive advertising, and Longinus to present its eponymous hero; “Some Aesthetic High Points,” an exercise in autobiography that counters the standard artist bio included in catalogs and press releases; and a sequence of “creative writings” that use mass cultural tropes in concert with high art mannerisms—approximating in prose the visu- MINOR HISTORIES al styles that characterize Kelley’s artwork. “Video Statements and Proposals” are introductions to videos made by Kelley and other artists, including Paul McCarthy and Bob Flanagan and Sheree Rose. “Image-Texts” offers writings that accom- Statements, Conversations, Proposals pany or are part of artworks and installations.

The film focuses on American artist Margaret Keane (Adams), whose work was fraudulently claimed in the 1950s and 1960s by her then-husband, Walter Keane (Waltz), and their heated divorce trial after Margaret accused Walter of stealing credit for her paintings. The film had its world premiere in New York City on December 15, 2014. [4] It was released theatrically on December 25, 2014, in the United States by The Weinstein Company .[5] The film was met with positive reviews and was nominated for three Golden Globe Awards , with Adams winning Best Actress .

  • En El Ojo De La Tormenta: Big Eyes (2014) De Tim Burton Y Su Estética Neoexpresionista in the Eye of the Storm: Tim Burton's
    EN EL OJO DE LA TORMENTA: BIG EYES (2014) DE TIM BURTON Y SU ESTÉTICA NEOEXPRESIONISTA IN THE EYE OF THE STORM: TIM BURTON’S BIG EYES (2014) AND HIS NEO-EXPRESSIONISTIC AESTHETICS Ana Ávalos * María Marcela González de Gatti* RESUMEN Los rostros expresivos de niños solitarios con gigantescos ojos inundados de lágrimas, que fluyeron del pincel de Margaret Keane, constituyen un estilo registrado que ha sufrido las vicisitudes del tornadizo mundo del mercado del arte. Las pinturas Keane han seguido un recorrido tan épico como la vida de Margaret, o Penny Doris Hawkins, nacida en Tennessee en 1927. Una de sus obras emblemáticas, Tomorrow Forever, que despliega cien niños de diferentes credos, fue retirado de la Feria Mundial de 1964 después de que el crítico John Canaday, en su cáustica reseña para el New York Times, vituperara su estilo. No obstante, el posterior arrollador éxito del estilo llevó al propio Andy Warhol a reconocer que su celebridad debía estar basada en cuestiones de calidad. El heroísmo de Margaret, quien fue víctima de un escandaloso fraude, es reivindicado, en forma conjunta con su estilo, en el filme Big Eyes (2014), dirigido por Tim Burton. Esta presentación aborda el análisis del largometraje como historia suprimida de género en el contexto de los movimientos contraculturales de los sesenta. Una joven mujer artista sufre una doble exclusión, por su condición dependiente y el perfil figurativo de su talento, en un medio dominado por el arte abstracto, fortalecido a través del estatuto hegemónico que le había conferido su ingreso al arte mainstream. El análisis se encarga de explorar el modo en el cual el filme vehiculiza la reivindicación de la artista y su estilo a partir de su propia estética de producción.
