Biography:

Adolphe Feder was a Ukrainian-born French painter, born on July 16, 1886, in Odessa, and he died on December 19, 1943, in Auschwitz. Feder was associated with the School of Paris, a group of émigré artists who contributed significantly to the development of modern art in the early 20th century. He moved to Paris in 1910, where he became part of the vibrant artistic community, exhibiting his work at the Salon d'Automne and the Salon des Indépendants. Feder's oeuvre is characterized by its expressive use of color and form, often depicting scenes of Jewish life and culture. His career was tragically cut short during World War II when he was deported and murdered in the Holocaust, yet his work continues to be recognized for its poignant representation of Jewish identity and experience.
