Victor Bauer (1902-1959) is an Austrian painter, watercolorist, and draftsman of modern art, belonging to the surrealist movement.

Trained at the Academy of Fine Arts Vienna, he moved in Paris and Nice among the leading intellectual circles of his time.

Deeply antifascist, he actively engaged in the French and Italian Resistance during World War II. Bauer's antifascism was not merely an intellectual stance but the central driving force of his life and art during the 1930s and 1940s.
