Josef Ramaseder

Austrian, 1956 - Present

Josef Ramaseder is a visual artist who was born in 1956 in Linz, Austria. Ramaseder studied from 1979 to 1983 at the University of Applied Arts Vienna under Oswald Oberhuber and from 1974 to 1980 at medicine at the University of Vienna . The artist has had several gallery and museum exhibitions, including at the Jane Voorhees Zimmerli Art Museum at Rutgers University.

Continuously opening up new horizons of experience is a characteristic of the life and work of Josef Ramaseder. The different areas of tension became the fund of his expanded artistic practices, which range from painting to video, photo, installations, art in public space, curatorial projects to cooperation projects with other artists. Even after his return to Austria in 1995, the focus was on painting: Ramaseder dealt with the physics and metaphors of light and the circulation of internal and external images. Ramaseder consequently tried to realize his idea of the medium painting in terms of its complexity and various adaptive abilities.
