Reviews

Author Information

Peter Hupfauf studied art and design in Frankfurt, Germany. As a designer, he created many well-known images and campaigns. In the early 1980s, Hupfauf revitalised his interest in fine arts and created abstracts in reference to Northern European history. After moving to Australia, he received a Master of Fine Arts at the University of NSW and subsequently commenced doctorial studies on the art of early Scandinavia, which resulted in a PhD at the University of Sydney. Dr Hupfauf’s books and papers were published over the recent years. They combine his expertise as both a scholar and an artist/designer.
