LeMoyne College

Price: Free
Wilson Art Gallery, Noreen Reale Falcone Library
LeMoyne College, Syracuse

An exhibit of Robert Hofmann's paintings, pastels and sketches from World War I and after. Hofmann's work, consisting of paintings and drawings, provides viewers with dramatic visual representations of the personalities and landscapes of the Middle East in the early 20th century.

Robert Hofmann studied art at the Vienna Academy after serving in the Austrian and Ottoman armies during World War I. After completing his training he returned to the Middle East further developing his unique body of work. Following a career that took him from Vienna, to London and Australia, Hoffman subsequently settled in Syracuse in the 1950s where he maintained a studio and taught painting until his passing in the 1980s.
