Submitted to Art News Magazine in 1966, this article was held by its editor Thomas Hess until 1967, and returned to Kurt unpublshed (with apologies). It is a fine portrait of the artist Victor Brauner (1903-1966), and Kurt connects Brauner's style (early psychological surrealism and later Klee-like whimsy) with the influence of Hassidism in his early life. This article demonstrates Kurt's scholarship and some of his most polished writing, and is an excellent addition to the written material available about Brauner. Images and hyperlinks have been added.
