About this title

About the Author:

Marguerite Zorach (b.1887 Santa Rosa, CA d. 1968 Brooklyn, NY) and William Zorach (b.1887 Jurbarkas, Lithuania d. 1966 Bath, ME) are best known for their major contributions to American Modernism. The two artists were a tour-de-force in the first half of the 20th century, championing the advancement of the avant-garde in New York City as it burgeoned into a global center for artistic production, presentation and critical theory. Dahlov Ipcar (b. 1917 Windsor, VT), Marguerite and William s only daughter is a renowned painter, illustrator and author, who continues to produce artwork from her home in Georgetown, ME. She has authored and illustrated over 30 children s books, penned four novels and has continually received recognition for her work as a painter. Her children s books and novels are an excellent entry point to the unique imagery of her paintings that are easily identified by their highly stylized picture planes portraying animal and human figures through geometric abstractions and colorful palettes.
