Morton Künstler 1927 - 2025
Our 97-year-old artist, father, friend, and colleague passed away on February 2, 2025. He had a prolific life and career, yet happily said many times “I never worked a day in my life!” He is missed by all who were lucky to have known him and his paintings.
We greatly appreciate the outpouring of condolence messages and notes. Thank you.
History in Photos
1975
In 1975, Mort Künstler was commissioned by Circle Fine Art and the Amateur Athletic Union to do the official lithograph of their indoor championship meet at Madison Square Garden, New York. Here Künstler sketches on the floor of the Garden during the meet.
For the past 25 years, Hammer Galleries has been proudly representing the work of Mort Künstler. His unparalleled attention to detail and historical accuracy are brought to life in paintings that archive one of the most important eras of the United States.
