Philip Reisman was born July 18, 1904, in Warsaw, Poland. In 1908 his family moved to New York, where he would come to expressively interpret scenes of various daily labor, seedy nightclubs and reflective moments within the city. Reisman studied at the Art Students League of New York under Wallace Morgan, George Bridgeman, George Luks and Frank Du Mond. He studied privately as well with Harry Wickes from 1927-1928.
The Works Project Administration (WPA) and the Public Works Art Project (PWAP) provided Reisman with opportunities for commission and travel during the 1930's. Exhibitions include several one-person shows at the ACA Gallery in New York between 1943 and 1963, and numerous group exhibitions with the National Academy of Design, Hudson Guild and Whitney Annual in New York.
Reisman also illustrated short stories for "Colliers" magazine and an edition of "Anna Karenina" for Random House and created a mural for the Bellevue Hospital, New York in 1937. Reisman received awards from the Carnegie Institute, Nicholas Roerich Museum, National Academy of Design, American Academy and Institute of Arts and Letters, and the American Society of Contemporary Artists.
He taught at the American Artists' School, Educational Alliance, South Shore Arts Workshop, Workshop School of Advertising Art and the Young Men's Hebrew Association. His works have been included in the public collections of the New York Public Library; Museum of Modern Art, New York; Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York; the National Academy of Design, New York and the Hirschorn Museum and Sculpture Garden of the Smithsonian Institution, Washington D.C. In 1986, Martin H. Bush published a book of Philip Reisman's life and work for the Edwin A. Ulrich Museum of Art in Wichita, Kansas.

More Information Robert Hale Ives Gammell: After completing his major allegorical sequence, the Hound of Heaven, Gammell felt compelled to revisit certain themes and figurative compositions in later years. His original plan was to display the smaller panels, or "Puppy Panels" as he affectionately called them, between the larger Hound panels.
Robert Hale Ives Gammell (1893-1981) was a prolific professional painter working in Boston, Provincetown, and Williamstown, Massachusetts. During the sixty-five years of his career, Gammell painted murals, portraits, landscapes, and still lifes, but the pieces which excited him most were the allegorical works drawn from his imagination. In his diary Gammell wrote that he was “fascinated by the drama of man in his relationship to the forces of the universe and of his own nature.” Over the years he experimented using ancient myths and rituals as well as contemporary symbols in his attempts to articulate images of man’s terror, wonder and yearning in the face of a century of upheaval.
Excerpt from Elizabeth Ives Hunter, the God-daughter of R. H. Ives Gammell and the daughter of his assistant, Theodore W. J. Valsam.
R. H. Ives Gammell believed in the practice and standards of art should rest on the Gold standard established by the 19th-century French system of learning, as practiced by the Ecole des Beaux-Arts and Academie Julian of Paris. His personal mission was to follow that tradition, so he established his own Studio working with a handful of students at a time. His book ‘Twilight of Painting’ would help define a way back to those lofty goals for future artists, reflecting the uncompromising levels of quality that he embraced, and maintained.
Robert Hale Ives Gammell was born to wealth in Providence, Rhode Island and spent the majority of his artistic life in Boston at the Fenway Studios and in Williamstown, MA, where he died in 1981. In 1910, Gammell studied briefly with William C. Loring and Wm. Sergeant Kendall before training in 1913 at Boston's Museum School with Philip Hale, F.W. Benson and Edmund C. Tarbell for a few months.
Gammell then went to Provincetown, MA to study with Charles Hawthorn and then to the Academie Julian in Paris and the Academie Baschet until the end of 1914. He was tremendously influenced by the teachings of Tarbell and the work of Joseph DeCamp and William M. Paxton. He was so influenced by the Boston School he vowed to hand down their teaching traditions to generations of students and he did exactly that. Some of the painters who are "Gammellites" are Samuel Rose, Thomas R. Dunlay, Robert Cormier, Richard Lack, Gary Hoffman, Stephen Gjerston, Robert Douglas Hunter, David Lowrey, David Curtis...
