AVV 209 #687996
MILWAUKEE, WIS. ââAdolph Gottlieb Prints: 1933â1946â will be on view May 24âAugust 19 at The Milwaukee Art Museum.
Gottlieb began making etchings in 1933 and produced several images over the next 13 years in his home in Brooklyn. These prints documents the shift in Gottliebâs thinking from stylized figurative work, through Surrealism, to his Pictographs of the 1940s. The scale of Gottliebâs prints underscores their intimacy â the images range from as small as a few inches to as large as a foot or more. This exhibition consists of 39 of the 40 images Gottlieb is known to have printed between 1933 and 1946.
The exhibition is organized by The Adolph and Esther Gottlieb Foundation, curated at the Milwaukee Art Museum by Mary Chapin, assistant curator of prints and drawings.
The museum is at 700 North Art Museum Drive. For information, 414-224-3200 or www.mam.org.
