About the Artist
Alfred Nussbaum
Born 16/08/1919 in Lvov, Poland.
Died 16/02/2004 in the UK.
20th Century Austrian Expressionist.
"Out of the ghost haunted mists of my childhood grew a desire to find out and a firm conviction that, with supreme but glorious effort, it would be possible to reach The Truth, and that conviction, nourished by legends and fairytales, stayed with me."
"My aim as a painter is to oppose what I consider the sterile, introspective modernism characterising contemporary painting, and to rise, as far as I may be able, to the challenge this age of disintegrating cultures poses to creative artists."
C.V.
He was born, schooled, tested
Accepted, rejected
Loved, hated
Celebrated, mocked
He searched the maps
They put before him
For a way.
For ways there must be,
But they proved deceitful
And made him doubt
All maps and those
Who make a living
By devising guides
Out of our miseries.
He ends by putting documentary evidence
In readiness
For his heirs
(Alfred Nussbaum, August 1996)
