Description: KURT LARISCH (1913 VIENNA-2009) Kurt Larisch was born in Vienna, Austria in 1913. He was first exposed to art in the photography and antique atelier of his father who painted miniatures on ivory. Establishing himself as a graphic artist, Larisch was one of the first in Europe to involve himself in the new field of animated film.In 1938 political instability interrupted his work and Kurt Larisch found himself in England, then in India. He became art director in one of India's new and most progressive advertising agencies.Larisch continued to paint and had five one-man shows during his eight years in India. Prior to India's independence, he became art director for the firm recruiting for the British Armed Forces in India. Now married with a child, he moved his family to the US in 1947.Larisch absorbed what his new environment in New York offered, and opened his own Graphic Art Studio. He continued to paint, but began to feel that something was lacking. In 1970 he decided to move his family to Mexico. They traveled widely in the country, sensitive to yet another history and culture until he was propelled into abandoning traditional techniques for an art form influenced by every culture he had encountered.He became one of Mexico's most celebrated contemporary artists, developing a style and technique, which have now become the central theme of a unique and very personal statement on modern times. Kurt Larisch was obsessed with man's predicament in a world hell-bent on self-destruction.
