About

Why this artist matters now

Georges Schreiber is an American painter born in 1904 who worked in a documentary realist mode, capturing social observation and reportage through paint. Based in Brussels, his work emerged during the 1930s and 1940s when social engagement and the artist's role as witness were central to American artistic practice. He exhibited at MoMA, including in the 1940 exhibition PM Competition: The Artist as Reporter.
