FOUND

The following are images of documented or otherwise known Mącznik

paintings or drawings, the whereabouts of which had been unknown

for many years but most thankfully have been located.

Above is an image (partially obscured) of page 202 of the French version of the book of the

renowned exhibitions "Artistes d'Europe: Montparnasse Déporté," published by Le Musée du

Montparnasse. These four oil paintings were part of the exhibitions which were in

Turin, Italy, and Paris, France, approximately 2005. It was then reported

to be the first exposition of the painters and sculptors of the "Montparnasse Deported."

(However, it was not. There were one at Galerie Zak in 1955, one in Israel in 1968, and others.]

Within a few years after the exhibition was completed, the whereabouts of all four paintings

became more widely unknown.  Worse, the Musée du Montparnasse closed its doors 2015.

Below are other images of two of the paintings above:

The two paintings immediately above, and the self-portrait farther above with the artist wearing

a hat, have both surfaced in good condition as of October 2022, as has this one:

All five above are privately held in the U.S.
