About the Item
Philip Reisman, a Social Realist painter and printmaker known for his views of New
York City street life.
Fourteen of Mr. Reisman's etchings of New York life were in the show Works on Paper at the Museum of the City of New York. His work is also represented in the collections of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in Manhattan, the Hirshhorn Museum in Washington and the Wadsworth Atheneum in Hartford, among others.
A three-month exhibition of Mr. Reisman's work from the 1960's and 1970's appeared at the Museum of the City of New York. The artist was elected an Academician at the
National Academy of Design. A book about him, "Philip Reisman: People Are His
Passion," by Dr. Martin H. Bush, was published in 1987 by Wichita State University.
Mr. Reisman was born in Warsaw in 1904, and came to New York with his
family at the age of 4. He studied at the Art Students League in the 1920's, and had
his first solo show at the Painters and Sculptors Gallery in New York City in 1931.
Later in the 1930's, he worked as a painter and muralist on the Federal Art Project of
the WPA, Works Progress Administration, the Government-sponsored effort to create work for artists during the Depression.
For many years, Mr. Reisman exhibited at the ACA Gallery in Manhattan, along
with other social commentators, including Jack Levine, Robert Gwathmey, Philip Evergood and William Gropper. He also taught art classes at his studio and at the Educational Alliance.

Purim Holiday Scene Judaica Aquatint Etching American Modernist WPA Artist
By Ben-Zion Weinman
Located in Surfside, FL
Born in 1897, Ben-Zion Weinman celebrated his European Jewish heritage in his visual works as a sculptor, painter, and printmaker. Influenced by Spinoza, Knut Hamsun, and Wladyslaw Reymont, as well as Hebrew literature, Ben-Zion wrote poetry and essays that, like his visual work, attempt to reveal the deep “connection between man and the divine, and between man and earth.”
An emigrant from the Ukraine, he came to the US in 1920. He wrote fairy tales and poems in Hebrew under the name Benzion Weinman, but when he began painting he dropped his last name and hyphenated his first, saying an artist needed only one name.
Ben-Zion was a founding member of “The Ten: An Independent Group” The Ten” a 1930’s avant-garde group, Painted on anything handy. Ben-Zion often used cabinet...
