Al Lachman

American, b. 1936
Born in 1936 in the Bronx, NY, Alan Lachman studied at Syracuse University, School of Visual Arts, and the Art Students League of New York. During the course of his 70 years as a fine artist, Lachman has traveled extensively, painting thousands of works throughout the United States and abroad, with a focus and deep love for the American landscape. Throughout his career as a painter, teacher, author, and juror, Lachman has received numerous awards. He was honored for his lifetime achievements and contributions in American art by “Who’s Who in American Art” (2005-2006). In the ensuing years, Lachman became known for his pastels as well as his oil paintings. He was honored and received “Best of Show”, “The Joseph Giffuni Memorial Award” presented at the 20th Annual National Exhibition by the Pastel Society of America at the National Arts Club in New York City. This award is the highest honor bestowed upon any U.S. pastelist annually. He was further honored as a Director on the Board of Control of the Pastel Society of America and one of the original founders and first instructors of the PSA School for Pastels, which is the only one of its kind in the U.S. Lachman achieves unparalleled luminosity and depth in his works by painting on a clear surface developed by the artist himself. Allowing him to paint on both sides, and adhering any medium, this surface brings vitality and a unique physical dimension to his works. Lachman is an artist that seamlessly synthesizes the atmospheric nature of American Impressionism with the expansive and expressive bands of modern and abstract expressionist colorfield painters. His combination of vibrant color, surprise, abstraction and realism create a world of exploration that is present in his ample body of work. Lachman’s paintings are represented in numerous prestigious public and private collections and continue to garner the attention of art collectors internationally.

From My First Love, Did I Awaken, Expressionist Abstract by Master Colorist
Located in Doylestown, PA
"From My First Love, Did I Awaken" is a 56 x 44 inches, original abstract by American master colorist painter Al Lachman. The artwork is a gallery wrapped canvas, signed "Lachman" in the lower left. Life is a tapestry of experiences and emotions. It is a journey we are all on. And while our experiences may vary, it is sure to encompass a full range of human emotions. For me, it started some eighty-five years ago (my Mom said I popped out with a brush in my hand). There were only a few things I could do well, and drawing was one of them. So I set out to become an artist about seventy years ago. It ran the gamut of human experiences and emotions, from eating peanut butter sandwiches for breakfast, lunch, and dinner early in my career, to working all my adult life from nine to nine, seven days a week. I am driven…I paint every day that I am home.. - Al Lachman Born in 1936 in the Bronx, NY, Alan...

It Is Right, It Should Be So, Abstract Expressionist Landscape
Located in Doylestown, PA
"It Is Right, It Should Be So" is a 44 x 56 inches, original, abstract landscape by American master colorist painter Al Lachman. The artwork is a gallery wrapped canvas, signed "Lachman" in the lower right. The artist puts his thumb upon the pulse of life and records it. In that mystical beat lies the unknown, and he would but make it known. Being both, innovator and spectator, he exists as an intrinsic part of that rhythm. Each painting begins with a premise, and I rarely use the same one twice. It is based on what I see and what I am feeling at that moment. I do not think that painting is about technique. It is about a particular perception of the world around us. The premise creates the periphery of my intent. It is a limitation that gives birth to the creative forces within. - Al Lachman Born in 1936 in the Bronx, NY, Alan Lachman...

Landscapes of the Soul and of the Mind XIX , Abstract Expressionist Landscape
Located in Doylestown, PA
"Landscapes of the Soul and of the Mind XIX " is a 44 x 56 inches, original, abstract landscape by American master colorist painter Al Lachman. The artwork is a gallery wrapped canvas, signed "Lachman" in the lower center. It is part of the artist's series "Landscapes of the Soul and of the Mind". The artist puts his thumb upon the pulse of life and records it. In that mystical beat lies the unknown, and he would but make it known. Being both, innovator and spectator, he exists as an intrinsic part of that rhythm. I try to approach each painting with a minimum of predigested information. I look at the world with the natural curiosity of a child, always looking for unique qualities that each new moment brings. Talent, I believe, is found in the ability to take risks, and with that in mind, I am continually willing to risk it all every time I paint. The most exciting paintings, for me, are the ones that balance a bold fresh approach with the sensitive and subtle workings of the heart and mind. - Al Lachman Born in 1936 in the Bronx, NY, Alan Lachman...

This Passing Night Was Heard. In his book, Secrets of a Crazy Artist, Lachman writes: "Creativity comes from inspiration, and we are inspired and influenced by others, by their uniqueness. I believe that everyone is special and has something to offer. This is how we grow, by giving ourselves to others, and by so doing we give value to our lives. I want to thank all of the wonderful people in my life who have shared their uniqueness with me and helped make me more than I was." Born in 1936 in New York City, Alan Lachman...
