This event has ended.

An exhibition of collages and box constructions by Hannelore Baron (1926-1987), drawn from the artist’s estate and an important private collection, is now on view at Leslie Feely Fine Art. Born in Dillingen, Germany, Baron’s family escaped Nazi Germany in 1939, eventually settling in New York in 1941. A self-taught artist, Baron began creating small-scale strikingly personal works during the late 1950’s, at first inspired by Abstract Expressionism, and later by a variety of works which share a spiritual quality, including African sculpture, Tantric drawings, Christian Reliquaries, Native American art, and the art of ancient civilizations. Baron’s works are represented in many major American and European collections including the Museum of Modern Art, Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, Whitney Museum of American Art, Art Institute of Chicago, and Los Angeles County Museum of Art.
