Artist Name: Otto Rapp - Year: 1993 - Medium: graphite on paper Dimensions: 48 cm x 66 cm Artwork Description:
Left side of a diptych. Right side sold. A third panel was added later. It is a summary and tribute to the influence of the Vienna School of Fantastic Realism on my work, in particular Hausner and Fuchs. I entered it as 'Mixed Media', since strangely, there still is no category for 'Drawing'!
