Albert Paris Gütersloh was an Austrian painter and writer. A gifted painter, worked under Max Reinhardt as a stage designer. In the 1914-18 War he was in the official Press H.Q. at Vienna. After the war he continued his artistic activities, in 1929 became a professor at the Kunstgewerbeschule, and, after being forced out of office in 1938, from 1945 at the Wiener Akademie der Bildenden Künste, whose rector he was in the mid-1950s. He was also active as a literary Expressionist, contributing to Die Aktion; he wrote the novels Die tanzende Törin (1910, revised in 1913), an Expressionist work, reissued with a postscript by W. Rasch in 1973, Innozenz oder der Sinn und Fluch der Unschuld, and Der Lügner unter Bürgern (both 1922 and together receiving the Fontane Prize for 1923). His principal novel, the work of many years, is Sonne und Mond. Ein historischer Roman aus der Gegenwart (1962, reissued with an essay by H. Heißenbüttel, 2nd edn., 1984).
