Hugo Weber (1918-1971), painter and sculptor, was born May 4, 1918, of Swiss parents.

Weber immigrated to the US in the 1940s, and in 1946, he was appointed professor at the Institute of Design in Chicago (Chicago Bauhaus). He later became professor at the Illinois Institute of Technology and also taught at the Pennsylvania State University and at the New York University. The Betty Parsons Gallery in New York represented Weber and solo exhibitions of his paintings were mounted in 1953, 1955, and 1959. Other solo exhibitions were held at the Colorado Springs Fine Art Center, Art Institute of Chicago, Chicago Institute of Design, Galerie 16 in Zurich, American University in Beirut, Galerie Hutter in Basel, and Finch College in Manhattan. Weber was included in numerous group exhibitions including the Salon des Realites Nouvelles in Paris, Sculpture Today at the Toledo Museum of Art, Directions of American Paintings at the Art Institute of Chicago, Salon des Comparaisons in Paris, as well as shows at the Corcoran Gallery, Guggenheim Museum, Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts, and Whitney Museum of American Art. His work is represented in the collections of the Art Institute of Chicago and the Cincinnati Art Museum. Weber moved to Paris in 1955, returning to New York in 1960. He lived in loft/studio building on Greenwich Street in the Village. He died at the age of 53 on August 15, 1971, in New York.
