About the Item

Whimsical Original Aquatint Etching by German/American artist Hedi Bak (1927 - 2010). The etching presents in a side fold mat and is in excellent condition. Tape adheres the print to the mat at all four corners. Mat: 11 x 8 ½ inches. Image measures 5 x 4 inches. Paper size is 7 5/8 x 6 3/8 inches. Pencil signed, titled and numbered below the image. Edition: 100. The career of Hedi Bak spanned 60 years and three continents. She was born in Germany in 1927, the daughter of a political activist who later spent a year in Dachau in the early 1930's. In 1949, she married fellow art student Bronislaw Bak and soon started a family. A career artist, she juggled her time between teaching, family life and her art. In the 1960's She managed Studio 22, and produced a volume of prints; both her own and in collaboration with Bronislaw. Later, when Bronislaw's health gave out, the couple moved to Europe where she was employed, doing preservation work at the Gutenburg Museum in Mainz, Germany. In 1972 they returned to America and established studios in Statesboro, Georgia. Hedi continued to teach until 1980. Hedi remarried after her husband died and spent some time in Nigeria with her new husband. But she returned to Oak Ridge, her first husband's hometown and lived there until her move to the Atlanta area. In 2009, Gallery 4463 hosted a retrospective exhibit for Hedi, shortly before her death in 2010.
