Talk:Samuel Bak

message: The "Artistic Style and Influences" section under Samuel Bak's Wikipedia article contains great background information on Bak and uses credible sources. However, I think this section could improve even more with some further details on specific pieces of Bak's. I plan to add further description of Bak's style. I think adding some quotes from Bak himself on his artwork will help strengthen this article. For example, in the late 1980s Bak opened up about his paintings, stating they convey “a sense of a world that was shattered.”  I also plan to add background information on some of his more famous pieces, such as Trains, Shema Israel, Alone and Ghetto. As a secondary source, I plan to use Chapter Five: Landscapes of Jewish Experience: The Holocaust Art of Samuel Bak from Lawrence L. Langer’s book "Preempting the Holocaust.” Langer is an American scholar, professor, and Holocaust analyst. His book "Preempting the Holocaust" was published by Yale University Press and is a credible source. If anyone wants to comment on these changes, please let me know on this Talk Page or on my Talk Page.

replies: text: Sounds like you are interested in speaking mostly about the way his art ties to the Holocaust. Seeing as Bak's Wiki article already talks about the Holocaust, please fit your additions in organically. Find where the article already talks about the Holocaust, and weave in the information accordingly.Chapmansh (talk) 18:48, 20 November 2018 (UTC)
thread_title:  Artistic style and influences 

message: Are we sure that the works are on permanant display at the Pucker Gallery.  It looks to me more like they are on sale by the Gallery.  See  for evidence that at least one of his works is on sale, and their page on him specifically  starts with "Represented by Pucker Gallery since 1969".  That is making me wonder about commercial purposes for the link.  And do you have any other sources to reference on him?  GRBerry 18:12, 28 July 2006 (UTC)

message: The third floor has a permanent exhibit space devoted to Bak and his works. His work is also in many public museums (see list in the article). Bak is one of the most significant living visual artists of the Holocaust. Johnfmh 22:01, 9 September 2006 (UTC)

message: There is lots of great stuff here, but it needs more coherent sourcing to be of use. Especially when discussing art, arguing that certain things influenced Bak, and the reason why he put things where, without sourcing anyone ever saying it, feels like you're reading a blog post. He's a very significant artist, so hopefully this page will be improved. Noxiyu (talk) 08:56, 10 August 2015 (UTC)
