Friedensreich Hundertwasser (1928-2000), graphic artist, painter and architect, was one of the most unusual artistic personalities of the 20th century. His rich creative fantasy was revealed equally in graphic art, painting, architecture and design.
This exhibition, at the Museum of Fine Arts, shows over 100 pieces from the collection of the KunstHaus in Vienna, which houses the Hundertwasser legacy. Besides paintings and graphic prints, tapestries designed by the artist are also displayed while photos and studies offer an insight into his remarkable works.
