Abraham Levin, 67 year old former machine (##)erator in a trouser factory who taught himself to paint at 57, is having a special (##)wing of his works at the Jewish Museum through August 5th. This will be the (##)rst exhibition of its kind to be held at the Museum, which was opened to the (##)blic two months ago under the auspices of the Jewish Theological Seminary of (##)rica.
Since his first exhibit at the Uptown Galleries in December 1941 Mr. Levin (##) had several one-man and group shows and his pictures hang in many museums in (##)e United States. Hailed at the time of his first one-man exhibition in 1941 as (##)“find,” he paints entirely from memory with no nodels before him and his works (##)veal a complicated color scheme. The pictures on Jewish themes are filled with (##)mory of the small town near Vilna in Lithuania which he left in 1903 to come to (##) United States.
