Johnny Friedlander was born in 1912 in Pless (Haute-Silesie). In 1928 he studied art at the Academy des Beaux art de Breslau with Otto Muller and Carlo Mense. Friedlander had a world reputation for his beautiful etchings. He was the virtuosi of the intaglio, the aquatint, and many other printing techniques. Friedlander did not keep his extensive knowledge to himself but shared it with many students and colleagues. His prints involve seemingly figurative elements which turn to be false for they exist in a non-real space, in a subconscious and dreamy state.
His first one man show was in 1948 at La Hune, Paris. This exhibition was followed by many other around the world, in Musee Rath in Geneve, Museum of Modern Art in Sao Paulo, Museum of Art in Cincinnati, Staatl Museen in Berlin, Israel Museum in Jerusalem, and more. He died in 1992.
