Born in 1943 in Linz, Austria, he lived in Australia in 1961, where he worked in different professions, starting out as an art college student (attending the Berwyn College of Advanced Art in Melbourne, Australia), to an accomplished graphic designer, and finally to a successful professional painter with his own original style of painting – the Wave Style.

In 1978, Alois Nimmervol returned to his hometown of Linz, where he founded the art space Lijmeyerver, where he organized an annual exhibition, making it the center of his artistic work. Since his return to Linz, he has held most of his major solo exhibitions both at home and abroad, and his works are in the collection of the world-famous Albertina Museum in Austria, as well as in many national and private collections and museums internationally.

Alois was a watercolor landscape impressionist painter in the early days, in his continuous exploration and sublimation into a nature as the source of creativity, writing free and unrestrained, strong colors, full of vitality of the abstract painters.

In 2004, Alois Nimmervol was awarded the Austrian Order of Culture of Upper Austria, and in 2023, he was awarded the title of Honorary Lifetime Professor of Art by the President of Austria.
