Bernd Püribauer

Born in 1976 in Neukirchen, Lower Austria, he is a multifaceted artist working in painting, graphics, sculpture, performance and music. He received his artistic education at the Ortwein School of Visual Design in Graz. Püribauer gained particular recognition as a cartoonist for the Viennese city newspaper Falter and the magazine Wiener, where his sharp-witted and often provocative drawings addressed societal issues. In 2010, he was among the award-winning artists at the Outstanding Artist Award for Caricature and Comics and also won the German Cartoon Prize in the same year.

His art balances ironic lightness with profound reflection. A notable work was his 2014 object installation Fukushima Aquarium in the Art Box at MuseumsQuartier Vienna, which garnered international attention. His stage design for Das Schwert des Ostens was nominated for the prestigious Nestroy Prize in 2015. Additionally, he leads the Dada band Turbodeli, further expanding his creative boundaries.
