Joseph
Vogel
(1911-1995)
was
born
in
Poland
(then
Austria-Hungary),
and
moved
to
the
United
States
with
his
family
at
age
16.
He
studied
at
the
National
Academy
of
Design
in
New
York,
but
credits

real
art

self-exploration
of
museums
and
art
associations.
Vogel
joined

Federal

there,

tended
to
be

controlled
and
academic.
His
work
flourished
in
abstraction,
surrealism,
and
expressionism

range
of
subjects
from
politics
to
sports.
