Alois RIEDL was born in St. Marienkirchen near Schärd­ing in Upper Aus­tria in 1935. His first con­tacts with the fine arts began in 1960 and from 1970 at the lat­est he began to devel­op as a painter. In 1976 he received the Upper Aus­tri­an Cul­ture Prize and in 1983 a state schol­ar­ship. In 1993 he took part in the painters’ sym­po­sium in Wer­fen. The artist has been rep­re­sent­ed in numer­ous nation­al and inter­na­tion­al exhi­bi­tions and par­tic­i­pa­tions in exhi­bi­tions. The sub­jects of his paint­ings are every­day objects, tat­tered sofas, arm­chairs and rick­ety arm­chairs. In his paint­ings, he express­es the frag­men­tary and frag­ile nature of objects — also reflect­ing his own state of mind. If the motifs appear abstract at first glance, the rep­re­sen­ta­tion­al comes to the fore after a long peri­od of view­ing. The artist lives and works in Brun­nen­thal near Schärd­ing. 1969 – first exhi­bi­tion in the gallery Welz.
