Gurschner's talent for painting was evident early on. In 1918, he was accepted as the youngest student at the Academy in Munich. From 1920 he lived in Innsbruck's Mühlau district and exhibited together with the other artists of the "Mühlauer Kreis", Nepo, Schnegg and Lehnert. From 1925 on he undertook numerous trips to Italy, Spain and France, exhibited at the Venice Biennale and in 1929 completed an acclaimed solo exhibition at the London Fine Art Society. In 1931 the Tate Gallery bought his Annunciation. Gurschner made a living from numerous commissions for portraits and was thus associated with aristocratic, diplomatic and business circles. In 1938 he went into exile in London, where he met his second wife, Brenda. After the war, Gurschner turned to stage design, working for Covent Garden Opera, the Globe and Hammersmith Theatres.
