Migration and Memory: Three Immigrant Artists

Saturday, May 09, 2026, 10:00 AM – Sunday, November 29, 2026, 5:00 PM

Focus Gallery, Sidney and Lois Eskenazi Gallery, European and American Art, Modern and Contemporary, 1st Floor
A woman sits on a bed with folded hands, with her face gazing downwards. She sits alone in a lamp-lit room. In a window-like rectangle at the right, two figures embrace in a street.
Marc Klionsky (American, born Soviet Union, 1927–2017), Memories, 1988. Oil on canvas, 31 x 36 in. (78.74 x 91.44 cm). Gift of the Klionsky Family, Eskenazi Museum of Art, Indiana University, 2024.251

To mark the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence, this exhibition highlights recent acquisitions by three twentieth-century American immigrant artists. Born in Germany and the Soviet Union, the Jewish artists Hannelore Baron, Günther Aron, and Marc Klionsky fled oppressive regimes and resettled in the United States. Their work reflects experiences of navigating displacement and the challenges of holding multiple cultural identities.
