Hugo Weber Art

Swiss, 1918-1971

Painter and sculptor Hugo Weber was born on May 4, 1918, of Swiss parents. In 1939, Weber went to Paris, where he studied painting with Marcel Gimond and after his service in the Swiss Army (1939–42), he worked with Aristide Maillol and Alberto Giacometti. Weber immigrated to the US in the 40s, and in 1946, he was appointed professor at the IIT Institute of Design in Chicago. He later became a professor at the Illinois Institute of Technology and also taught at the Pennsylvania State University and New York University. The Betty Parsons Gallery in New York represented Weber and solo exhibitions of his paintings were mounted in 1953, 1955 and 1959. Other solo exhibitions were held at the Colorado Springs Fine Art Center, Art Institute of Chicago, IIT Institute of Design, Galerie 16 in Zurich, American University in Beirut, Hutter & Wirth Galerie in Basel and Finch College in Manhattan. Weber was included in numerous group exhibitions including the Salon des Réalités Nouvelles in Paris, Sculpture Today at the Toledo Museum of Art, Directions of American Paintings at the Art Institute of Chicago, Le Salon Comparaisons in Paris, as well as shows at the Corcoran Gallery of Art, Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts, and Whitney Museum of American Art. His work is represented in the collections of the Art Institute of Chicago and the Cincinnati Art Museum. Weber moved to Paris in 1955 and returned to New York in 1960. He lived in a loft/studio building on Greenwich Street in the Village. He died at the age of 53 on August 15, 1971, in New York.
