Arnulf Rainer
author · photographer
Arnulf Rainer is an Austrian artist known for his abstract and informal art. His work often involves 'overpaintings' (Übermalungen) of existing paintings, as well as re-workings of photographs and works on paper. He is recognized for exploring expressive traditions in visual art that date back to the Baroque period through Expressionism. In the context of the book 'Even Before Language', Rainer provided both photographs and text, contributing to a monograph published to accompany his exhibition at the Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam.[1,2,3]
