Hans Staudacher is a multiple award-winning, Austrian painter whose work is attributed to the genres of Tachism and Action Painting. He is the founder of Art Informel in Austria.
Staudacher showed an early interest in painting, initially in a self-taught capacity in the form of drawings, landscape watercolours and portraits. Later on he enrolled in a painting school taught by Arnold Clementschitsch. He moved to Vienna in 1950 and started to study the art of Alfred Kubin, Egon Schiele and Gustav Klimt. Soon afterwards he became a member of the Vienna Secession; his Informel exhibitions were pioneering at the time in Austria. The artist took up temporary residence in Paris between 1954 and 1962, where he came into contact with works by George Mathieu and the Letterism genre. These two elements defined his artistic oeuvre from then on. His works adopted an abstract style from the 1960s onward, and his pieces represent a unique combination of lyrical Informel art and Abstract Expressionism.
