So, 'Arnulf Rainer - Sternsucher' is this intriguing short doc that dives into the mind of the Austrian artist known for his unique take on portraiture. The atmosphere feels a bit surreal, with Rainer's technique of overpainting that distorts and abstracts the human face. It’s not just about the visuals; there’s this underlying tension between the conventional and the chaotic. The pacing is contemplative, really allows you to soak in his philosophy on art. You get a sense of Rainer's persona, almost like he's inviting you into his world of 'face farce.' The practical effects are minimal, but the way he works with paint? That’s where the real magic lies. It’s a distinctive piece that reflects his artistic struggles and triumphs quite well.
