Happy Birthday Kurt Hüpfner!

The exceptional Viennese artist Kurt Hüpfner turned 91 on December 20, 2021 - congratulations!

Hüpfner's oeuvre, spanning 70 years, shows sculptures, assemblages, collages, paintings, wall hangings, caricatures, prints, bundles, text images, as well as numerous drawings and graphic novels. The central themes of his art are political events, personal memories and encounters as well as the examination of modern and contemporary art and literature trends. From this he creates an individual world, full of fabulous beings and shapes, made of different materials, colors and shapes.

The exceptional Viennese artist, who worked in secret for decades, was only introduced to the art world at the age of 86 through a solo exhibition at the Belvedere21. His oeuvre comprises more than 3,500 works that can be accessed in the online catalog raisonné of the Belvedere.
