Richard Aberle Florsheim (1916 - 1979) was born in Chicago and studied in New York with Aaron Bohrod in 1934 and 1935. He pursued a course of independent study in France, Italy, central Europe, and the Near East from 1936 to 1938. In France he studied with Emile Bernard, exhibiting in the late 1930s with the Salon des Refusés. The Musée du Jeu de Paume honored him by purchasing one of his paintings, Don Quixote. Florsheim returned to Chicago and began working in lithography. After wartime service, he resumed his artistic career, exhibiting widely. He helped found the Artists’ League of the Midwest with Artists’ Equity Association of New York, later becoming president of National Equity. In 1947–51, he exhibited at Milwaukee Art Institute and mounted two shows at Luyber Galleries, New York in addition to teaching art. Florsheim was a trustee and honorary vice president of Provincetown Art Association. In 1965 he was appointed to the Illinois State Art Council and was also a member of the Audubon Artists and Society of American Graphic Artists. Please email any questions –
