ALBERT HECKMAN AND HIS CIRCLES (Summer-Fall, 2024)In the years 1920 to 1922 Albert Heckman (1893-1971) was both a student (with Arthur Wesley Dow) and a teacher (Isami Doi was a student) at Columbia Teachers College, NY, NY. As newlyweds Albert and Florence Hardman traveled to Germany and Denmark in 1922. He went back to Germany in 1929 to attend the Leipzig Institute of Graphic Arts.
Upon return to this country Heckman taught at Hunter College, NY, NY, from 1930 to 1958. The Heckmans divided their time between New York City and a home in Woodstock, NY, on Overlook Mountain. In the 1930s Heckman ran the summer art school of Columbia Unversity at Woodstock.
His work from this period is particularly noteworthy for views of Hudson River Valley industry portrayed with a refined precisionist complexity. Along with Emil Ganso, Margaret Lowengrund, Lois Murphy, Caroline and Paul Rohland, Andre Ruellan, and of course many others, Heckman was an integral part of the Woodstock art colony.
