JAMES SEEMAN (1914 – 1994) muralist and engineering designer, always
had an exceptional talent for painting. In his native Vienna, he put his
talent to work painting posters for movie theaters. He came to the
United States in 1938 opened his first studio in New York at the war’s
end. Organizing his studio along engineering lines, he created murals on
wallpaper and canvas, did research in painting, printing, and
hand-screening techniques, and produced hand-cast stone and tile
mosaics. He founded James Seeman Studios in 1943, and over time
acquired a worldwide reputation for excellence of design and
highest quality and integrity, with distribution not only throughout the
U.S. and Canada, but in most European countries and Australia and Japan
as well. He sold the company in 1973, to the Masonite, and continued to
work for Masonite until 1976, when he returned to his favorite activity
- fine art painting. The company, James Seeman Studios, ran into
difficulties starting in 1982 and was closed in 1987. In the last years
of his life he was busier than ever with many commissions for his work.
He passed away in 1994. About this book:
