Man of the Year

"Orwell' (acrylic on canvas), by Arnold Trachtman, in this show "Arnold Trachtman: Paintings,'' at Galatea Fine Art, Boston, Nov. 1-26. Curator Marjorie Kaye writes: "This survey of the paintings of Arnold Trachtman ... encompasses years of the artist's concentration on the portraiture of figures of history, literature and the arts.....{His} paintings {are} "dedicated to those individuals who have made impressions upon further impressions in his work, which largely brings to the surface elements of injustice present in society throughout the decades.''
