Pat Hamou “Mazel Tough: Jewish Gangsters of New York 1900 - 1945”
The City Reliquary
This event has ended.
Inspired by the intrigue of vintage mug shots and the dark charms of historically colorful characters, artist Pat Hamou’s own crime of passion has been the brief yet rich history of the Jewish Gangster. The 29 gangsters presented in the exhibition left a fascinating, yet dark, blemish on the early Twentieth Century Jewish-American experience. Using archival images as a springboard, artist Pat Hamou has created intricate, colorful and textured pen and ink, and watercolor drawings that reflect a bygone era while bringing new life to them.
