Jankel Adler Figurative Drawings and Watercolors

British, Polish, 1895-1949

Jankel Jakub Adler was born in Tuszyn, a suburb of Łódź. In 1912, he began training as an engraver with his uncle in Belgrade. He became a teacher at the Academy of Arts and became acquainted with Paul Klee, who influenced his work. A painting by Adler received a gold medal at the exhibition "German art Düsseldorf" in 1928. Adler was strongly influenced by Picasso and Léger. He enjoyed experimenting with materials, for example, sand admixtures. He often painted Jewish subjects and painted some abstract compositions.
