Description
Provenance
The artist, Webster Groves, MO (ca. 2004)
In 1923, Lois Field was born as Lois Hossfield in Berwyn, MD and grew up in Patterson, NJ. Field was dissatisfied after studying at the Newark School of Fine and Industrial Arts and at the Art Student’s League in New York City and heard from a friend who was serving in the U.S. Army about a man in his outfit that was then teaching at the Institute of Design in Chicago, artist Myron Kozman. Following her friend’s encouragement, Field not only became a graduate of the class of ‘52 from the Institute of Design (ID), but went on to marry Myron Kozman. Field, like her husband, adopted the teachings of the Bauhaus movement, embracing avant-garde and experimental techniques.
