About the Artist: Born in 1912 in Kiev, Russia, Alexander Liberman became an academic and post-Impressionist painter in Europe before moving to the United States in 1941. From that time, he painted and sculpted in abstract styles, often using the circle which he asserted was the ideal shape. In his sculpture, he was revolutionary because of his use of industrial materials, factory building methods, and large-scale size. He gained prestigious public commissions beginning in 1963 when architect Philip Johnson hired him to do a work for the 1963 Worlds Fair in New York City. One of his first public commissions was from the architect Philip Johnson for a pavilion at the 1963 World's Fair. Liberman died in
November, 1999 at the age of 87. His sculptures and paintings are in many collections including the Metropolitan Museum, Museum of Modern Art, Corcoran, Hirshhorn Museum & Sculpture Garden, Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, the Tate Gallery in London, and the Los Angeles County Museum of Art. In addition,
Storm King Art Center has three monumental Liberman sculptures in
it's collection.
