Rudolf Wiesinger was born in Sopron, Hungary. He will be marked all his life by the violence of the Second World War which marked his young years. From 1946 onwards, he was brought up in a Marxist-Communist ideology, but the Party refused to allow him to study art because he was of German-speaking descent and his father had been enlisted in the Wehrmacht. Sent to work in a factory, he was watched by the political police because he was suspected of wanting to go to the West.
In 1956, after the Budapest uprising, he managed to reach Austria, in Linz, where he enrolled at the School of Fine Arts. He worked in Ottenheim where he sold his first paintings, one of which was acquired by the Linz Museum.
In 1968, he returned to France and Paris. He abandoned the abstract style in 1970 to devote himself to landscape painting between abstraction and naturalism, deploying all his mastery of classical techniques.
He died in his studio in Côte d'Or in 2020.
