Maurice Pasternak Art

Belgian, b. 1946

Maurice Pasternak was born in Brussels in 1946 and pursued the study of art from 1963–68 at ENSAV, Belgium’s national academy for the training of students with superior artistic ability. Since graduation, he has engaged in the creation of drawings, pastels and mezzotints. In addition, he served as the chief professor of art and the designer of the art curriculum at his alma mater from 1982. Since 1971, Pasternak’s work has been awarded more than twenty international prizes at biennial competitions throughout Europe, Asia and the United States including the Prix Special De L’Edition at World Print Four in San Francisco and the Walker Prize at the Philadelphia Print Club. He has had numerous solo exhibitions on various continents and his work is included in museums in Japan, Taiwan, Belgium, Poland and the United States. In 1994, Pasternak had a solo exhibition at the Musee des Beaux-Arts de Mons in Belgium and was selected for inclusion in Intergrafica `94 – World Award Winners Gallery in Katowice, Poland. He was a guiding force in the 1994 Belgium-Japan Print Exchange Exhibition.

Profils Horizontaux (20 men seated in a church, a hall, union or political?)
By Maurice Pasternak
Located in New Orleans, LA
Viewers are always curious about this image. I count 20 people seated -- all men. Why? Three of the men are looking over their shoulders toward the back. Are they impatient to see late arrivers? The seating seems to be pew like. Pasternak, like most artists, wants the viewer to bring their own interpretation to the image and is most circumspect to give an explanation. A church, a union hall, a political meeting -- which is it? The mood seems to be one of anxiety rather than celebration. The artist did answer why all men. He says that "he likes to create the tension of the image on the page. Putting women and men together...
