Dora Holzhandler Art

British, French, 1928-2015

Dora Holzhandler was a French contemporary artist, born in 1928 in Paris, into a family of Polish refugees. She was later sent to live with a foster family, on a farm in Normandy, France. Holzhandler returned to her Jewish family, when she was five years old, before the family moved to London, in 1934. Though she endured the war in England, much of her extended family perished at Auschwitz, Poland. In 1948, she attended the Anglo-French Art School, in St. John’s Wood. Her childhood memories and Jewish roots permeate her work, as do her Buddhist beliefs. Holzhandler's innocent art has many fans, including Irish writer, Edna O’Brien, television art historian, Sister Wendy Beckett and comedian, Jack Dee, among others.
