The Louise and Bernard Palitz Gallery at Syracuse University’s Lubin House presents “Morton Kaish: A Print Retrospective,” on view beginning Nov. 8. Organized by Vanja Malloy, director and chief curator of the museum and Morton Kaish ’49, the retrospective presents an overview of Kaish’s exploration and love of the print medium.
Fallen Warrior, 1957
Spanning over seven decades, the exhibition of 31 prints of varying media highlights Kaish’s mastery of traditional and emerging techniques, starting with an early drawing Kaish created as a student at the University in 1945, through his experimental years in Italy and culminating in the dramatic color and patterns of his current “Butterflies” series.
