Within early Austrian modernism, Anton Faistauer sought a balance between sober form and emotional colour, between spatial plasticity and abstracting flatness, like no other artist and subordinated every motif to this painterly problem. Faistauer’s “harmonism functions in such a way that the components do not merge completely with each other but keep each other in check like weight and counterweight. It is a harmony gained from contradictions.”

Nikolaus Schaffer, quoted in: exhibition catalogue, Salzburg Museum, 2005, p. 51
