BIOGRAPHY: Equally at home in Munich, Paris, North Africa, and their native Chicago, Martin and George Baer have attained an international outlook and ease in painting, difficult apparently, for our American artists to achieve.Paris is the mighty maelstrom toward which the artists of all the world have gravitated for the past century. The Spaniard, Picasso, becomes as much a Parisian as the Frenchman Matisse, and so does the Italian, Modigliani, and the Dutchman, Van Gogh.Martin Baer, of the former inseparable team of the Baer Brothers, Martin and George, is back in Chicago, intending to stay at least a year. With him is his wife, the former Mme. Janina Liszkowska, once direction of the Galerie de la Jeune Peinture, Paris, which succumbed ' like so many other Parisian galleries ' to the Depression, and who is now associated, as American representative, with the Galerie Benezit. Mrs. Baer retains, for professional purposes, her name of Mme. Liszkowska, her first husband being the Polish poet who was associated with that other Polish poet, Zborowski, faithful friends of Modigliani.
