Eugenie Baizerman New York / Poland, (1899 - 1949) female nude figure study graphite on paper Signed verso. Biography from the Archives of askART: Originally from Poland, Eugenie Baizerman was one of America's earliest Abstract Impressionists. Prior to immigrating to the United States in 1910, Baizerman's family lived in Bessarabia, a province of Russia, and in the city of Odessa in the Russian Ukraine. The surname she received at birth, changed to Silverman upon her arrival in America, remains unknown. Baizerman's mother, an actress, and her father, a language teacher, began nurturing her artistic skill during childhood. They initially hired an artist to coach her individually. She was later admitted to the Odessa Art School. After moving to New York City, Baizerman continued her art education at the National Art Academy of Design, followed by the Educational Alliance. She became acquainted with Saul Baizerman, a Russian sculptor working as model for the National Academy of Design, whom she later married. Eugenie Baizerman's unique style of painting emerged from French Impressionism and evolved into form of expression. She used the subjects of her paintings - ordinary objects, landscapes, and figures - as the basis for rhythmically combing thick, colorful brushstrokes in abstracted, harmonious compositions. A preference for working in isolation greatly affected Baizerman's career as an artist. Throughout her life, she was extremely shy. Also, during most of her adulthood, she dealt with respiratory problems caused by partially psychosomatic asthma. In order to avoid potentially stressful situations which aggravated her condition, she refrained from actively promoting herself and her artwork. It was on rare occasion that she allowed the inclusion of her work in public exhibitions. For these reasons, knowledge of her work was kept to a minimum. Before her death in 1949, which was attributed to her respiratory illness, the extent of Baizerman's public involvement in was limited to two shows. The first, held in 1939, was a solo display. The second was in conjunction with her husband's sculptural work closer to the time of her death. Eugenie Baizerman's artwork remained unexposed for nearly twelve years until a collection of paintings, which had been in Saul Baizerman's possession prior to his death 1957, were displayed to the public. The exhibition, held in 1961 by the Artists Gallery of New York City, resulted in the acquisition of her work institutions including the Museum of Modern Art and the Whitney Museum of American Art in New York.

EUGENIE BAIZERMAN (1899-1949) Young Artist (Portrait of Saul Baizerman).

EUGENIE BAIZERMAN (1899-1949) Young Artist (Portrait of Saul Baizerman). Oil on canvas. 505x430 mm; 20x17 inches. Signed, titled and dated in ink, verso. 1918. As a teenager, Eugenie immigrated with her family from Poland to the United States. Having completed formal training at the Odessa Art School, Eugenie continued her studies in New York at the National Academy of Design and at the Educational Alliance. Classically trained, with Old Master artists as her model, Eugenie's early output was more muted and figural than the vivid abstractions of her mature œuvre. Saul Baizerman (1889-1957, see lot 144 and lot 145) was born in Vitebsk, Russia and moved to Odessa with his family as an adolescent. He wished to become a sculptor from an early age, watching his father, a harness maker by trade, hammer metal and leather hides. Saul was surrounded by revolutionary activity and political turmoil in Odessa. At age sixteen, he was imprisoned, though escaped to the United States after serving one and half years for his revolutionary ties. In 1910, Saul settled in New York, where he continued his artistic training at the Beaux-Art Institute of Design and attended much of the same schools as Eugenie, Moses Soyer (1899-1974), Raphael Soyer (1899-1987, see lot 67) and Chaim Gross (1902-1991). Saul and Eugenie married in 1920, at a time when Saul was beginning to become noticed for his small hammered bronze sculptures of the working class. The two artists traveled through Europe during the early 1920s, Saul exhibiting his "Labor Series" in London and Paris before the couple's daughter was born in New York in 1926. Saul's physically arduous technique of hammering sheets of copper related directly to his portraits of New York laborers. His exertion, evident in the works themselves, is reflected by his subjects. Saul was impeded by a studio fire in 1931 which destroyed all of his copper works in progress, though he was widely exhibited through the 1930s and 1940s. Eugenie's abstract paintings, which put color theory before form, borrowed from Expressionism. When she did include subjects, they were characterized as being "buried under a blanket of petals" so that the scenes shrunk into the background. She exhibited independently at the Artists Gallery, New York in 1938 and 1950, though she never sold a work. In 1948, the Baizermans exhibited together Saul's monumental hammered work and Eugenie's broadly painted colorful canvases at the Artists Gallery. Eugenie died in 1949 and Saul's health began to decline. His career in the 1950s was marked by high praise and honors. In 1953, the Walker Art Center, Minneapolis, organized his first retrospective. By the time Saul remarried in 1955, he had already withdrawn from his artistic work. When he died in 1957, he left behind a studio of large sculpture and a group of critics, collectors, and gallerists dedicated to his work, including Virginia Zabriskie and Joseph Hirshhorn. Though Eugenie remained an obscure artist, Krasner Galleries held a favorably received retrospective exhibition of her work in 1961 and Zabriskie Gallery exhibited her paintings from 1969 through 1988 and most recently in 2000.
