!!!Art-Club

Art-Club, Viennese association of artists in the postwar period, 
founded 1947, one of the most progressive platforms for young 
painters, sculptors, authors and musicians in the struggle for the 
autonomy of modern art. The president and prominent mentor of the 
group was A. P. Guetersloh. Art-Club exhibitions mostly took 
place in the Zedlitzhalle or in the Secession in Vienna. For a long 
time, the artistic image of the Art-Club was mainly characterised by a 
harmonious juxtaposition of Surrealists ( Vienna School of Fantastic 
Realism) and abstract painters. The Art-Club was dissolved in 1959.
