Arnulf Rainer
Actor
Arnulf Rainer is primarily known as an Austrian painter and visual artist rather than an actor or director. Born on December 8, 1929, in Baden, Austria, Rainer is most celebrated for his abstract and avant-garde works. He is notable for his "overpaintings," where he would paint over photographs, drawings, and paintings, creating a new piece that reflected his unique vision. Throughout his career, Rainer has received numerous accolades and had his work featured in major exhibitions worldwide, including the Venice Biennale. His contributions to the art world have made him a significant figure in contemporary art.
Das Meisterspiel
In the 1990s, Austria was rocked first by paint attacks on paintings and later by bomb attacks on galleries.
