| biography:
| Painter, born in Boston, Massachusetts, USA. He studied at the Boston Museum School (1929), moved to New York City, and painted scenes of social comment and protest. His satirical cautionary attitude, conveyed through an exaggerated baroque Surrealism, is seen in ‘The Feast of Pure Reason’ (1937), and ‘Gangster's Funeral’ (1952–3). He also painted works dealing with contemporary Jewish life. |
