In 2004, she turned her heart to portrait painting.

People have been the focus of freelance photographer Clemens Kalischer's attention for more than 50 years. Kalischer’s extensive body of work spans the images he contributed to Edward Steichen's "The Family of Man" exhibit at The Museum of Modern Art in 1955, the freelance jobs he undertook for prominent magazines like Time, Life and Fortune, and the 35 years he worked on assignment for the New York Times. This exhibition highlights photographs taken in 1947 and 1948 as displaced persons arrived in New York. "Displaced Persons," one of Kalischer’s first series and one of his most personal and intimate, quietly chronicles the arrival of Holocaust refugees in the United States in the late 1940s, a scene of which he was both observer and participant. The public is invited to a free preview reception at from 6 to 8 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 4, 2010. Admission is free, but advance registration is required for this reception. Visit http://www.hmh.org/RegisterEvent.aspx to RSVP online. For more information, call 713-942-8000 or e-mail

“Fragile Fragments: Expressions of Memory” raises an intriguing question: how is the Holocaust memorialized in the visual arts and how will it be remembered by future generations? The exhibit examines the complex relationship between art and loss as seen from the perspectives of several different female artists – Thea Weiss, Roz Jacobs, Ziva Eisenberg, Nancy Patz and author Susan L. Roth. Each of these artists worked directly with a Holocaust survivor to create their body of work highlighted in the exhibition. The public is invited to a free preview reception at from 6 to 8 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 4, 2010, at which some of the artists will discuss their work. Admission is free, but advance registration is required for this reception. Visit http://www.hmh.org/RegisterEvent.aspx to RSVP online. For more information, call 713-942-8000 or e-mail
