[Cz-L] Czernowitz Art Gallery - What's New?

Czernowitzers and art appreciaters...
 
By special courtesy of Gabriele and advised by Hedwig, I have the privilege to announce, that we've introduced a unique painting made by Solomon Lerner to the Czernowitz Art Gallery

Gabriele wrote: "Here is the painting of my father's grand-mother, Toni Gold called Tonzia, painted in 1923, she died some times later, her grave is the first tomb on the left, next to the cemetery main entrance (Gold family)."

Solomon Lerner is an enigmatic artist and I'm encouraging everyone to share with us any available information on Solomon Lerner. The Mechner Foundation in New York launched

THE SOLOMON LERNER PROJECT - http://mechnerfoundation.org/newsite/lerner.html

which "is attempting to bring the work of the painter Solomon Lerner (ca. 1890-1963) to the world's attention.  Considered by some who are familiar with his work to be one of the great post-impressionists, Lerner achieved only limited recognition, his career having been disrupted by World War II and his paintings scattered. The Foundation's first goal is to locate as many of his paintings as possible and display digital photos of them on this website.  It is estimated that Lerner produced between one and two thousand paintings, but at the present time -- 2010 -- the Foundation knows the location of only about fifty of these.  The rest are scattered throughout the world, mostly in Israel, the United States, Cuba, France, and possibly Romania.  The Foundation has black-and-white photos of 58 of them, and color photos of an additional dozen."

Gabriele's painting made by S.L. may be no. 51. This is for now the last update of the Gallery until the upcoming solo exhibition in (see countdown) 42 days, 4 hrs., 58 min., 32 sec. I'm extremely grateful for all positive and encouraging comments, which really motivates for further exhibitions. The direct link to the comments is right here:
