Participants will study the work of collection artist Harry Lieberman and consider\u00a0his themes and stylistic choices. Then, families will create their own Lieberman-inspired narrative works of art.<\/p>\n Lieberman was born in the small Polish shtetl, or Jewish village, of Gniewosz\u00f3w, in the area of eastern Europe known as the Pale of Settlement. In 1906 Lieberman immigrated to the United States, one of the many thousands of Jews fleeing the hardships and violence of Jewish life in Russian Poland. In New York City he adopted a largely secular lifestyle, working first in the textile trade and then operating a candy store on the Lower East Side with his wife, Sophie, until they retired in 1950. In 1956, after a revelation while visiting Machpela,\u00a0Lieberman started to paint vivid and dynamic narratives drawn primarily from Jewish history, religion, lore, and literature, although some works express his views on contemporary issues. The artist wrote texts in Yiddish and attached them to the backs of his paintings.<\/p>\nAt the Self-Taught Genius Gallery
