Estimate: $300 - 400 About The Artist: Arieh (Leo) Lubin, painter, born 1897, U.S.A. In some of his works, Arieh Lubin reflects contemporary trends of the 1920s. The Cubism of Derain, The Purism of Le Corbusier and Ozenfant- these and other influences he absorbed through the pages of ”L'Esprit Nouveau” (the new spirit), a journal he ordered from Paris. In a country virtually isolated form the centers of culture and information, the striving of the Eretz Israel artists of the 1920s to draw on international sources was unique.
