**Arno Rink** (26 September 1940 – 5 September 2017[1]) was a German painter. He was accepted to the [Hochschule für Grafik und Buchkunst Leipzig](/source/Hochschule_f%C3%BCr_Grafik_und_Buchkunst_Leipzig) (HGB) in 1962 and studied under [Werner Tübke](/source/Werner_T%C3%BCbke), [Hans Mayer-Foreyt](/source/Hans_Mayer-Foreyt) and [Harry Blume](/source/Harry_Blume). He is associated with the second generation of the [Leipzig School](/source/Leipzig_School_(painting)), which paints in a German figurative tradition.

Rink started to teach at the HGB in 1979 and was its headmaster from 1987 to 1995.[2] He taught several prominent painters from the [New Leipzig School](/source/New_Leipzig_School), such as [Neo Rauch](/source/Neo_Rauch), [Tilo Baumgärtel](/source/Tilo_Baumg%C3%A4rtel), [Michael Triegel](/source/Michael_Triegel), [Tim Eitel](/source/Tim_Eitel), [David Schnell](/source/David_Schnell) and [Christoph Ruckhäberle](/source/Christoph_Ruckh%C3%A4berle).[3][4]
