Interests: painting, contemporary art

Originally named Helga, Anna Edenhöfer and hailing from Maierhöfen near Friedberg, Austria, Vani Eden discovered her passion for painting at age 12. Her artistic journey was influenced by early work with Friedensreich Hundertwasser and explorations with Ferdinand Prinz. Although she paused her painting after meeting her husband, Johann Klampfl, in 1984, she reignited her passion in 2002 under the mentorship of Waltraud Slatar. Her latest exhibition was showcased at Tabor Castle, Neuhaus am Klausenbach.
