Biography: Segal
(b Iasi, 13 July 1875; d London, 23 June 1944). Romanian painter, printmaker and teacher. He went to Berlin in 1890, training at the Staatliche Hochschule für Bildende Künste, and in 1895 attended the Académie Julian in Paris. For a time he stayed in Munich, and then Dachau, but spent summers in Botosani, Romania, until 1924. Between 1900 and 1910 he produced landscapes, portraits and interiors, influenced above all by Pointillism, and exhibited at the Artistic Youth (Tinerimea Artistica) society between 1905 and 1913. In 1904 he settled in Berlin, where he co-founded the Neue Sezession (1910) with Max Pechstein and others. In this period the influence of van Gogh began to dominate his work. Through his connections with the Blaue Reiter, Segal exhibited at the Sturm-Galerie in Berlin, publishing a series of Expressionist woodcuts and linocuts between 1911 and 1913 in Der Sturm .
