Artur Szyk: Artist, Zionist, Patriot, and Jew
A jewel box overflowing with images of Jewish heroes and Nazi monsters.
Born in Poland in 1894, and immigrating to the U.S. in 1940, Artur Szyk was a talented and versatile artist whose work appeared in the New York Post and on the covers of both Time and the Manhattan phonebook—among many other publications. He was a lifelong Zionist and a committed patriot of both his native and adopted countries. J. Hoberman reviews an exhibit of his work currently on display at the New-York Historical Society, which he calls “a jewel box overflowing with concentrated gem-like images of Jewish heroes and Nazi monsters.” (The exhibit runs until January 21, 2018.)
