Watercolor No. 475, Harry Mintz
Harry Mintz was born in Poland, graduating from the Academy of Fine Arts in Warsaw in 1927. After a fellowship in Brazil, he immigrated to the US in 1934. He lost his mother, father and sisters in the holocaust. After the war he searched for surviving members of his extended family, advertising in European newspapers and looking through thousands of telephone book pages. In 1987, he gathered the surviving members of the Mintz family for a reunion in Chicago.
His artwork grew more abstract as his career progressed … “While I have the strongest connection with reality, I do not copy nature verbatim, but interpret it in the light of my own feelings about it."
