Stefan Riedl
Stefan Riedl (* before 1990) is an Austrian set designer , painter and often one of the outfitters of the Vienna Life Ball .
Life
Riedl graduated as a stage designer and has a number of facilities for theater and opera designed. At the same time, he was always active as a visual artist.
Riedl's Mannerist paintings are often inspired by famous older works of art ( Caravaggio ) or well-known myths (such as Zeus and Ganymede ).
Since the renovations in the 1990s, the rooms of the Viennese “Kaiserbründl” have also featured revealing wall and ceiling paintings by the artist, such as the “Roman Grotto” (with lararium and nymphaeum ) designed by him. Stefan Riedl's paintings there have been described and illustrated many times, for example as a magazine cover or in the Internet blog of a columnist for Falter ( Comandantina Dusilova ). He also presented a number of drafts for the architectural design of the underground vaults, but these were only partially implemented and mostly in a modified form.
For many years, Riedl has been working with Gery Keszler to furnish the Life Ball . In 2009 he designed wall hangings for the rooms of the Vienna City Hall on the occasion of the Life Ball . For 2011 he designed a stage for Handel's Rinaldo as an integral part of the presentation. Riedl's aesthetics are also largely responsible for part of the advertising for this event.
