Description: 26 1/8” x 22 1/8” An American Modernist artist whose work defies ready catego-rization, Hananiah Harari synthesizes elements of Cubism, Constructivism, and Expressionism, while often creating recognizable imagery that reflects his direct experience. Inspired by his conviction that "art... must feed upon, digest, and reveal life," Harari's work is unified by a humanist vision and a sense of humor about the nature of human experience. Born in Rochester, New York, he studied at the Memorial Art Gallery and the College of Fine Arts, Syracuse University, New York. He spent time in Paris in 1932-34, where he trained in the ateliers of the Cubist masters André Lhote, Fernand Léger, and Marcel Gromaire and developed a style that merged a fluent Cubist vocabulary with an approach influenced by the style of Matisse. In 1937 Harari joined the American Abstract Artists group. With members Rosalind Bengelsdorf and Byron Browne, he shared an interest in creating nature-based abstractions. In the decades that followed Harari has worked in a versatile and wide-ranging style combining elements of Cubism, biomorphic and geometric abstraction, and Surrealism. His subjects have included the city, portraits, and images reflecting his political convictions. His works are in the collection of Whitney Museum of American Art.
