Artist Max Kaplansky with two of his "portraits."
For instance, I like to do
some carving. But it requires
space, and there's a lot of dust.
So, recently, when I did a few
marble pieces here, my
neighbors complained because
when the furnace or air-
conditioner is on, it sucks up
all the dust."
Costs of renting a studio
"which is half-decent, and
where I'd feel safe" are pro-
hibitive, he says, although
he's not given up the search.
Kaplansky claims he spends
so much time as he can these
days in the studio, although he
still goes to his real estate
office each day. He says he
usually gets home around 1-2
p.m. and then works in the
studio until dinner.
His work, done mostly in
plaster and bronze, consists
almost entirely of portraiture.
"I find the human face and the
human head the most interest-
ing thing to paint or to sculpt,"
he says. "I'm not so much in-
terested in an exact re-
semblance of the person as I
am their inner character. I
was once commissioned to do a
sculpture of a friend, who said
to me one day, You know,
sometimes you frighten me.' I
said, Why do you say that?'
It's the way you look at me,' he
said. 'Somehow, I feel that
you're crawling into me."'
Recent subjects for Kap-
lansky's work have been
Jewish community leaders
Edward Shifrin and Beatrice
Epel and former Wayne State
University sociology Professor
Jack Horowitz.
When not painting or
sculpting, Kaplansky likes to
spend time with his two sons
and three grandchildren (sons
John, 36, of Southfield, and
Ronald, 43, of Lansing, are at-
torneys), and he also enjoys
reading, especially Yiddish
literature.
"I try to travel as much as I
can, too." Kaplansky says.
"Maybe I'm making up for lost
time, so to say.. I like to go to
the old European cities and
observe the art work. some
years back, I went to Rome and
to Florence. Florence! If I were
young, I would live in Flor-
ence. What a beautiful, beau-
tiful city."
Kaplansky's most recent
trip this summer included a
visit to Antwerp and Bruges,.
"Somehow, not many people
go to Belgium," he says. "But
it's absolutely beautiful. In
Antwerp, they have the King's
Museum, which is the most
fabulous place. And, of course,
Antwerp was Rubens' home. -
His work is there. Brueghel's,
work is there."
As to the future, Kaplansky
says he hopes to continue what
he's doing, and to consistently
improve his work. He's also
experimenting with different
styles. Who knows? Mayb -.?<
something new will come up,"
he says, pointing out one of his
more recent paintings — a
unusual, surrealistic composi-
tion — which, he says, is li
nothing he's done before.
If he had it all to do over
again, would he do things any
differently?
"It's hard to say now, be-
cause the circumstances when
I grew up were entirely differ-
ent to what they are now," he
replies, after considering the
question for several minutes.
"I think, though, I'd do the
same thing, but maybe differ-
ently. Probably, I would ma
more sacrifices for the sake o
my art.
"Now, I'm just out to do the
beautiful thing," he concludes.
And the beautiful thing is ar
— something which raises us
all above the daily chores."
