Long description
Looking at the works of Eva Maria Wiesenthal, one recognizes the essence of contemporary Austrian art. Her style is expressive, impulsive, spontaneous – comparable to the freedom of the works of Alfred Klinkan or Günter Brus. Disregarding conventions, she transforms impressions into clear, memorable visual worlds.

In this book, Wiesenthal unfolds her life story, recounting both tragic and wonderful moments from her childhood and later life. Her drawings, gouaches, oil paintings, and texts explore human existence and add a healing dimension to classical art forms.

She teaches how to transform personal tragedies into strength, gratitude, and a new awareness – a path intended to inspire and inspire other people.

Reviews of the book:

• "She bravely creates a solid foundation for a successful life."
  – Andreas Salvator Habsburg-Lorraine

• "Her works are part of the essence of Austrian modernism."
  – Mag. art. Peter George Mahler
