"Personnage dans l'arbre", oil on canvas by Paul Ackerman, France, circa 1945
Located in Paris, FR
Large oil on canvas by Paul Ackerman, entitled « personnage dans l’arbre » (« character in a tree »).
Biography
Paul Ackerman, Romania-France (1908-1981)
Paul Ackerman is a Romanian painter, lithographer, sculptor and theater designer, living in France since 1912, he belongs to the School of Paris .
Paul Ackerman was four years old when, in 1912, his father, a company director and great art lover, decided, out of constraint in the face of « the anti-Semitism which is a harsh reality in Romania », to come and settle in Paris, in a large villa facing the Bois de Vincennes. He did his secondary studies at the Lycée Charlemagne (where he befriended Gabriel Arout, future playwright for whom he would later design the sets), then at the Ecole Alsacienne. From 1925, Ackerman studied law and letters at the Sorbonne, but, frequenting the Louvre Museum assiduously, he knew that his vocation lay elsewhere.
In 1933, Paul Ackerman met Simone Laverrière, a native of Royan, whom he married in 1935. In 1936, in his studio at 100, rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré, he designed projects for posters, fabrics and jewelry for Elsa Schiaparelli and Marcel Rochas while visiting Fernand Leger’s studio.
In 1939 Paul Ackerman was mobilized, taken prisoner then released, he found his wife Simone in Vichy where he was expelled as a Jew and left for Saint-Tropez. He then leads a cloistered life in the south of France, made up of small means (painting on...
