https://www.idburyprints.com/index.php?page=artist_print.php&aid=17&ar_name= Walter Spitzer was born in Cieszyn, Poland. A Holocaust survivor, he made his first drawing in a concentration camp with a burnt stick on an empty cement bag. Walter Spitzer has lived and worked since WWII in France, where he studied at the École des Beaux Arts in Paris. Walter Spitzer has achieved great renown as a painter and printmaker. Whether in his paintings of Biblical subjects or in lithographs such as ours, inspired by the writings of Sartre, Montherlant and Kazantzakis, Walter Spitzer is occupied with two great, interlinked themes: mans inhumanity to man, and the humanity of man. He will surely be recognized in the future as one of the great witnesses to the twentieth-century experience. https://www.idburyprints.com/artist/WALTER__SPITZER_17.htm See: Emmanuel Hayman, Walter Spitzer, 2002; Walter Spitzer, Sauvé par le dessin Buchenwald, 2004.
