In the mid-1970s Gottfried Helnwein painted posters and covers for the most prestigious magazines in the world. In doing so, he made his art accessible to an audience of millions and triggered discussions around the globe. With his works, he brought disturbing and exciting things into people's everyday lives and pulled the viewer out of his usual thinking.

In 1973, he painted a cover for the Viennese political and cultural magazine “Profil” on the subject of “Suicide in Austria”. The cover depicted a young girl slicing her wrists. This triggered intense public reaction at the time and many readers cancelled their subscriptions. In addition, Gottfried Helnwein designed a number of covers for the famous American newspaper “Time Magazin”, showing John F. Kennedy and Stephen King, among others.
