Heinz STANGL was born in Vien­na in 1942. 1961 to 1967 stud­ies at the Acad­e­my of Fine Arts in Vien­na, with Pro­fes­sor Max­i­m­il­ian Melch­er. The painter, graph­ic artist and book illus­tra­tor began his career in Vien­na, in the con­text of fan­tas­tic real­ism, before turn­ing to his own real­ism. The works, which are held in strong col­ors with flat fig­ures, often have a sen­su­al com­po­nent that con­trasts with mor­bid every­day sit­u­a­tions. From 1963 a live­ly exhi­bi­tion activ­i­ty began at home and abroad. As a mem­ber of the Vien­na Seces­sion, he was on the board of direc­tors for many years. The fan­tas­tic-real­is­tic-sur­re­al­ist human per­former was award­ed the City of Vien­na Pro­mo­tion Prize and the Theodor Körn­er Prize, among others.
