SIDNEY CHAFETZ AMERICAN, 1922-2013 LAST LEAF, 1966 Etching with aquatint on paper Lower left numbered: 110/250; center titled: Last leaf; lower right signed and dated: Sidney Chafetz 1966 Catalogue note: Born in this country to Jewish immigrant parents from Lithuania, Sidney Chafetz is part of a tradition of American artists who were deeply committed to themes of social justice. In 1948, he began teaching at The Ohio State University where he helped establish the printmaking program. Combining a masterful expertise in printmaking techniques with piercing and, at times, good-natured satire, Chafetz produced a vast body of work that documents and critiques life from the academia to the realm of powerful world leaders, influential philosophers, and literary giants. Examples of this print are in the collection of the Whitney Museum of American Art (117/250), Georgetown University Library Art Collection, University of Houston, Guilford College, and Western Carolina University.
