Johann Schrallhammer is a conceptual artist who is attributed to contemporary art. There are comparatively few biographical data on his person, since Schrallhammer does not want to participate in the „myth formation“ in the art business

The artist Johann Schrallhammer is primarily concerned with the forging of iron.
