See also In this field, you will find references to names of groups or to the artists that made/make up groups. You may also come across references to other artists if there was/is question of collaboration without a joint name. This is the case, for instance, with artists who rendered parts of works by other artists (such as with P.P Rubens and J. Brueghel I).

Hoffmann, Heinrich (fotograaf)

Hoffmann was zijn officële fotograaf; de broers Chapman eigenden zich in 2008 enkele werken van Hitler toe door er regenbogen, hartjes e.d. op te schilderen; kunstenaar Gert Jan Kocken fotografeerde aquarellen van Hitler.

Active in

Wenen (stad) 1907
Toog in 1907 naar Wenen om zich in te laten schrijven bij de kunstacademie. De kunstacademie waarbij hij zich aanmeldde, in het Oostenrijkse Linz, wees hem echter af. De directeur wees hem erop dat hij wel een zeker talent had en suggereerde hem eerst wat teken- en schilderlessen te nemen en dan nog eens te proberen om toegelaten te worden.
