1947 - 2012

Born in Vienna (AT), died in Vienna (AT).

Franz West is a key figure in the revival of the once so influential Viennese art scene. In his work, that is at once impressive and light-footed, form and function are more compatible than mutually exclusive. With an affinity for dark, anarchic humour, West walks the tightrope between 'pure' and applied art, between lofty aesthetics and frank knickknacks, between culture with a capital and a lower-case 'c'.
