Walter Urbach was a German painter and graphic artist known for his abstract painting of poppies.
Urbach studied at the Düsseldorf Academy of Art, then moved to the Cologne factory schools to devote himself to applied graphics, mastering lithography. Later, however, he returned to free artistic work.
In the 1970s he created his first paintings of the poppy flower. From a botanically precise representation the subject gradually passed to more and more free pictorial compositions.
Walter Urbach's works are in many museums and private collections, including the Kunstmuseum Bonn, the Clemens-Sels-Museum Neuss and the State Graphics Collection Munich.
