Artist's Biography: Anatol Shulkin, Russian-American, 1899-1961
Shulkin immigrated to the United States from Russian at twelve and studied with George Bellows and Leon Kroll at the Art Students League and the National Academy of Design in the 1920's. He had early solo exhibitions at the Art Centre Gallery, later at the Midtown Galleries in New York, and was a founding member of An American Group, Inc., a leftist leaning organization of artists. In 1932, the New York Times reviewed a solo exhibition of Shulkin’s work, commenting “he deserves front rank honors…put this exhibition, without fail, on your list of current ‘musts’. “ Later, Shulkin was a successful muralist with awards from the U.S. Treasury in 1935, 1937, 1938 and 1940, producing murals for the Works Progress Administration as well as several important private commissions. He also exhibited at the Corcoran Biennial, The National Academy of Art, The Cleveland Museum of Art, The Carnegie Institute, and the Art Institute of Chicago. As a native Russian-speaker, Shulkin had access to the Soviet Delegation at the 1944 Dumbarton Oaks Conference, the result of which is a series of historic life portraits in this sale. Anatol Shuklin's work is in the permanent collections of the Whitney and Metropolitan Museum of Art.
