Arnulf Rainer (born 8 December 1929, in Baden, Austria), is an Austrian painter and is internationally renowned for his abstract informal art. During his early years, Rainer was influenced by Surrealism. In 1950, he founded the ''Hundsgruppe'' (''dog group'') together with Ernst Fuchs, Arik Brauer, and Josef Mikl. After 1954, Rainer's style evolved towards ''Destruction of Forms'', with blackenings, overpaintings, and maskings of illustrations and photographs dominating his later work. He was close to the ''Vienna Actionism'', featuring body art and painting under drug influence. He did a lot of work on Hiroshima, after the bombing. In 1978, he received the Grand Austrian State Prize. In the same year, and in 1980, he became the Austrian representative at the Venice Biennale. From 1981 to 1995, Rainer held a professorship at the Academy of Fine Arts in Vienna - the same place where he aborted his own studies after three days, unsatisfied. His works are shown in the Museum of Modern Art and the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum. As the culmination of the appraisal of his work, the Arnulf Rainer Museum opened in New York City in 1993. Arnulf Rainer was a member of the Lord Jim Lodge.〔(Programmheft Wirsindwoanders, 2007, Seite 19 )〕 == References == 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Arnulf Rainer」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
