History in Photos
1985
On October 20, 1985, Hammer Galleries in New York City gave Mort Künstler his fifth one-man exhibition. It was an important event as it showed the first painting of his Ellis Island series, Freedom, as well as his first venture into the sculpture medium with a bronze entitled Call to Freedom. There was also great anticipation for his new book at the time, the first edition of The American Spirit - The Paintings of Mort Künstler, published by Harry N. Abrams, Inc. with text by Henry Steele Commager. Mort Künstler is pictured here with M. Stephen Doherty, editor-in-chief of American Artist magazine and author of the biographical chapter in the book.
Mort Künstler’s art is known for its graphic realism and vivid detail. He has spent a lifetime studying costumes and gear, the appurtenances of different periods of our past. And in almost every painting he tells a story, adding another dimension to the great American saga.
