Finding Her Muse in the City of Angels – Maria Loewenstein, Austrian born Artist & Author (Interview)

April 26, 2019 by Cornelia Leave a Comment

This month’s XPAT Spotlight Interview features multitalented artist Maria Loewenstein, who was born into the household of two music and art lovers in Vienna, Austria. After her parents built a house on a property they had bought in Klosterneuburg, the family of six exchanged busy city life for a quieter one in the outskirts of Vienna. Appreciation for art in all its forms and variations established then has remained an integral part of her life since childhood. Little did she know then, that she would become a multimedia artist in a city that’s full of inspiration: Los Angeles.

It goes without saying that this might have been the main reason that turned the four of us into artists/musicians and awakened our adventurous side.
