Bak Talk

This 10-minute talk will introduce visitors to key moments in Samuel Bak's life and career and situate them within their historical context.

The talk will cover his survival of the Holocaust, to his experiences in the nascent state of Israel, to his moves to Paris, Rome, Switzerland, and Massachusetts, and how these experiences defined his artistic goals — and led to his donation of 512 works of art to the University of Nebraska at Omaha.

Bak Talks will be limited to 10 individuals at a time and are available on a first-come, first-served basis.

Day Time
Saturday 1 P.M.
Sunday 3 P.M.
