About the Item
This is a 2 sided painting with a torn paper collage on the second side.
Born in New York, Paul Shimon (1919 - 2011) was both an accomplished artist and composer.
Considered by some to be an Early Jewish Outsider artist, he was influenced by his Sephardic roots and leaves a great collection of work in private collections worldwide. Shimon studied at the Art Students League of New York and with W.A. Clark Prize recipient Jean Louis Liberte (1896 - 1965).
A pioneer of abstract Judaica, the influence of his studies with Jean Louis Liberte together with that of his sephardic heritage is often apparent in Shimon’s artwork. Shimon was listed amongst the Who Was Who in American Art, the reference book of cultural life in the United States.
His works are held at the Butler Institute of American Art in Youngstown, Ohio. He was also active as a painter on early plastic jewelry.

This painting is iconic of Pichas Shaar's aesthetic, and stylistic influences. A ceramic mosaicist and sculptor as well as a painter, Shaars strong decorative sense was evident in his colorful canvas, with their frequent rectilinear geometry, depicting stylized figures, often mythological or biblical subjects.
Pinchas Shaar (born Szwarc, later Shaar) was born in Lodz, Poland in 1923. already at a young age he drew small graffiti and characters of fairy tales. at sixteeen he met the Polish painter Wladyslaw Strzeminski, a disciple of the Russian painter Kazimir Malevich, who encouraged Pinchas’ artistic education. Strzeminski encouraged Pinchas' artistic education and introduced him to the works of such painters as Picasso, Leger, Matisse, and Mondrian. Pinchas had his first exhibition in 1938 and also completed photomontages for a poetry book by Moshe Broderson that was published in 1939. Then, in September 1939, Nazi Germany invaded Poland.
