From the Black Forest to the California Desert: The Life and Work of Fritz Faiss (1905-1981)

The German-American Heritage Museum hosts its first ever art exhibit with this stirring retrospective of the work of Fritz Faiss, the first of its kind on the East Coast. The German-American artist is known for his wax paintings and his inimitable style, honed under some of the great German Expressionists. Faiss suffered under the Nazi regime but eventually moved to the U.S. in 1951. This exhibit will feature more than 40 of Faiss’ works, stretching from the 1920s to the 1970s

Tuesday – Friday, 11 a.m. – 5 p.m. |  Donations welcome
