The power of Samuel Bak to engage not only our minds but also our spirits comes from the poignancy of his artistic language. Such artistry involves not only the primary elements of space, light, color and composition, but also the artist's engagement with objects, symbols, narratives, and telling oppositions such as nature and culture.

Bak, a child prodigy, whose first exhibition was held in the Vilna ghetto at age nine, and whose paintings now span seven decades, weaves together personal and cultural history, past and present, to articulate an iconography of his experience of the Holocaust and his perceptions of a world that lives in the shadow of continuing genocidal acts.

Samuel Bakis an internationally acclaimed painter who lives in Weston, Massachusetts.
