Murray Hantman, American artist.(Current and coming)(Biography)
The modernist painter Murray (born Morris) Hantman spent numerous summers in Maine, most of them on tiny, rocky, and remote Monhegan Island. Accessible only by boat, Monhegan was a summer destination for artists as early as the early 1900s, when Robert Henri, Rockwell Kent, and George Bellows discovered it. Hantman with a few other New York City artists began summering on the island in 1945, and he painted there for thirty seasons. At his death in 1999 he bequeathed all the works of art in his studio to the Portland Museum of Art, where a monographic exhibition is on view through January 29, 2006.
