What's it about?

The Seidler Gallery specializes in works by selected contemporary artists as well as 20th-century painting. Wolfgang Stifter (born 1946 in Ottensheim) is an Austrian painter, graphic artist, and university professor. From 1991 to 2000, he was rector of the University of Art and Industrial Design Linz. Stifter grew up in the studio of his father, Alfred Stifter (art educator and glass artist). After attending the Wilhering Abbey Gymnasium, he studied from 1964 to 1970 at the Academy of Fine Arts Vienna, among others with graphic artist Maximilian Melcher. He completed study stays in Chengdu and Paliano and an atelier stay in Ballens sur Morges. In 2010, he built the Atelier Im Weingarten according to plans by Viola Stifter. A number of Stifter's works have been created as public art or as art on architecture. He created prints that range between calligraphy, Chinese characters, and impulsive cipher-like symbols. Some of his works are part of the art collection of the State of Upper Austria.
