Holocaust Museum LA presents “Jack Boul: A Conversation with the Artist,” a virtual discussion with the American artist about his powerful Holocaust monoprint series.
Boul’s Holocaust monoprint series was based on government photographs of Nazi atrocities that he saw as a soldier during World War II. Deeply affected, he created a series of 17 monoprints depicting stark images of Holocaust victims, capturing the loss, desperation and horror while memorializing the victims. First exhibited at the Corcoran Gallery, the monoprints were donated to Holocaust Museum LA in 2008.
Boul studied at the Cornish School of Art and then American University, where he went on to become a Professor of Art. He began exhibiting in 1951 in both group and solo shows. Works by Boul have been acquired by the National Gallery of Art and the Phillips Collection and his paintings, sculptures and monoprints have been exhibited at the Corcoran Gallery of Art, the Baltimore Museum of Art and the Mint Museum of Charlotte, N.C.
