Ukrainian-American, 1881–1942
Abraham Manievich was a Ukrainian-American painter known for his contributions to the early 20th-century art scene, particularly in the realm of modernist landscape painting. He was born on December 26, 1881, in the city of Kremenchuk, Ukraine. Manievich studied at the Kyiv Art Institute and later moved to Paris, where he was influenced by the works of the Impressionists and Post-Impressionists. He immigrated to the United States in 1923, where he continued to develop his artistic style and gained recognition for his vibrant landscapes and cityscapes. His work often features bold colors and expressive brushwork, reflecting a blend of realism and abstraction. Manievich's significance lies in his ability to capture the essence of his surroundings, contributing to the broader narrative of American modernism. He passed away on December 20, 1942, in New York City.
