HISTORY
Peter Lipman-Wulf was born in 1905 in Germany, a Christian born to a family with Jewish heritage. His father was a prominent lawyer and his mother was a talented sculptress. Peter decided to become a sculptor while in his teens. Success came early to Lipman-Wulf in pre-Nazi Germany. He was chosen as the State Academy of Fine Arts in Berlin's Master Stone Carver, but was forced to leave his position and flee to France after Hitler came to power. In 1937, he was awarded the gold medal at the Exposition Mondiale in Paris, but in 1939-1940, he was interned with many other artists and intellectuals. In 1942, he was able to escape to Switzerland with his Swiss wife and daughter. He immigrated to the United States in 1947, where he made his home in New York City until relocating to Long Island in the mid-1970s. He died on September 26, 1993, in Europe, while attending several openings of his exhibits in France. His popular Wedding Rings serves as a timeless depiction of love.
