At the age of 85, Nicolas Dellamartina is dedicating an exhibition to his former professor at the University of Applied Arts. In 1974, Attersee acquired an old run-down farmstead in St. Martin and spent several years renovating it with the help of neighbours. In his resulting barn-studio, he was finally able to paint the pictures for the Austrian pavilion at the Venice Biennale, where he represented Austria in 1984.
