Park West
Altman Exhibit

The love of nature will be the
theme at Park West Gallery
in Southfield with the open-
ing of an exhibition by Harold
Altman, one of America's
printmakers. The exhibit will
run through mid-September.
The collection, inspired by
nature, will feature litho-
graphs and etchings spann-
ing 20 years of the artist's
career as well as new works.
Similar to an architect in
dealing with space, Mr.
Altman carefully designs and
controls his compositions,
capturing small human
dramas among nature's color-
ful foliage or man's chaotic
lifestyle. Mr. Altman's works
teach viewers to see familiar
places — such as beautiful
famous parks — from new
perspectives.
Initially devoting his
talents to drawing and pain-
ting, the 69-year-old artist
turned to etching and
lithography in 1958 while at
the University of Wisconsin
on a faculty support grant. It
was there that Mr. Altman
discovered an etching press in
an unused classroom. He
then began his printmaking
career with a "how-to" book.
Mr. Altman's first litho-
graphs were created in 1951
while he was a fellow at the
Tamarind Lithography Work-
shop. He creates each of his
new lithographs by hand in
the manner of those past
masters.
Park West has selected
lithographs and etchings,
spanning almost 20 years of
work, to be offered with the
new collection. This group
perfectly reveals Mr. Altman's
technical mastery and his
broad range of subjects and
interpretations. Many of
these works are extremely
rare and have not been made
available to collectors for
several years.
Park West Gallery is
located at 29469 Northwest-
ern Highway in Southfield.
Gallery hours are Monday-
Wednesday, 10 a.m.-6 p.m.,
Thursday and Friday, 10
a.m.-9 p.m. and Saturday and
Sunday 11 a.m.-6 p.m. For in-
formation, call the gallery,
354-2343. ❑

May the children of the stock
of Abraham who dwell in
this land continue to merit
and enjoy the good will of the
other inhabitants, while
everyone shall sit in safety
under his own vine and fig
tree, and there shall be none
to make him afraid.
