The Life and Career of Michael Loew

Michael Loew was an American abstract expressionist painter and teacher who was active in New York City. Born in New York, United States, his artistic journey included studying at the Art Students League of New York and the Académie Scandinave in Paris. During the 1930s, he contributed to New Deal art projects, creating murals for U.S. post offices, high schools, and the Hall of Pharmacy for the 1939 New York World's Fair. His travels to Mexico and the Yucatán provided inspiration for his future work, and during World War II, he served as a Battalion Painter in the U.S. Navy Seabees on Tinian Island, where he documented airbase work in dozens of watercolors.
