Blind Men Listening

Joseph Hirsch was an American painter and printmaker known for figurative works that documented working-class life and social conditions in postwar America. His compositions, rendered in oil and lithography, focused on laborers, urban scenes, and moments of quiet dignity among ordinary people. Active from the 1930s through the 1980s, Hirsch's direct representational style and humanistic outlook positioned his work outside the abstraction that dominated mid-century American art.
