d. Munich (Germany), Jan. 21, 1977, painter, graphic artist. Studied 
at the Staedelsches Kunstinstitut in Frankfurt and became associated 
with the expressionists (M. Beckmann etc.), with Kandinsky, M.  Buber 
and P. Hindemith. His early work shows strong influences from modern 
French art and J. Itten's theory of colours, as well as containing 
cubist elements. 1930/31 he met P. Picasso, G. Braque and H. Matisse 
in Paris and was deeply impressed by them, although his own style of 
painting became more conservative. From 1933, he lived in Salzburg and 
moved to Vienna in 1948, where he was made professor at the Academy of 
Applied Arts. 1964 he moved to Tropea in the Abruzzi.
