Description

Interest in Herbert Eichholzer (:1903, +1943) was reignited with Dietrich Ecker's dissertation. Since then, his stance – unusual for Styria – committed to international modernism, has repeatedly been the focus of exhibitions, publications, academic works and competitions. His biography describes a charismatic and courageous political man who had to give his life in the resistance against the Nazis.
