Painting

Kurt Seligmann was an American painter and printmaker who worked across abstraction and figuration, creating dense, layered compositions that incorporated automatist techniques and mythological imagery. Active in the postwar period, he developed a distinctly personal synthesis of Surrealist methods and Jungian psychology, translating psychological states into complex visual narratives. His work combined painting, etching, and collage to explore the unconscious as a generative space.
