Samuel Bak: A Retrospective of Seven Decades

Artist Samuel Bak began painting as a boy in the Vilna Ghetto. He and his mother were the only members of his family to survive the Holocaust. Mr. Bak spent his life wrestling with his experience during the Holocaust, creating a legacy of testimony through his art. The exhibition, curated by the artist himself, will officially open at 2016’s To Life: To the Arts gala on February 18, at which Mr. Bak will receive the Loebenberg Humanitarian Award. Click here for more information on To Life.
