We show that there is a one-to-one correspondence between basic cotilting complexes and certain contravariantly finite subcategories of the bounded derived category of an artin algebra. This is a triangulated version of a result by Auslander and Reiten. We use this to find an existence criterion for complements to exceptional complexes.
