Artzybasheff

Syracuse – His illustrations haunt me.
The SU Art Gallery is presenting the work of Boris Artzybasheff, a Russian émigré and artist who illustrated 200 covers for Time from 1941 until his death in 1965. He also worked for Life magazine.
This is an unusual exhibit definitely worth checking out.
Artzybasheff had an extraordinary gift for portraiture. He also was well known for his eerie surreal paintings of machines with human features, and his satirical anti-Nazi paintings.

Arzybasheff’s work is masculine, precise, thought-provoking and often disturbing.
The exhibit runs through March. 11. -- JM
