(born in 1979 in Salzburg) studied painting at, among others, the Academy of Vienna in the years 1999 – 2004. His paintings and drawings consist of numerous allusions and appropriations and are an expression of the post-internet condition. They feature anonymous stock images, clip art, cartoon figures, decorative patterns, quotations from the history of painting and similar elements, which are arranged in rebus-like configurations persistently demanding to be solved. In most of Frauenschuh’s works, painting itself and its intrinsic problems: abstraction and figuration, still life and nudes, originality and imitation, as well as authorship and reproduction remain the essential themes.
