Gabriel Paul Weisberg OAL is an American art historian and educator. Weisberg is Professor of Art History Emeritus at the University of Minnesota.[1]
Career
A native of New York City, Weisberg received a Bachelor of Arts from New York University in 1963. He then earned two degrees in Art History from Johns Hopkins University: a Master of Arts in 1966 and a Doctor of Philosophy in 1967.[2] His doctoral dissertation was on the art critic Philippe Burty.
Shortly after graduating, Weisberg began his teaching career in art history at the University of New Mexico until 1969. Weisberg then moved on to the University of Cincinnati from 1969 to 1973. In 1982, he was awarded a Guggenheim Fellowship for research in art history. Three years later, Weisberg was hired as a professor of art history at the University of Minnesota, where he would spend the rest of his career. Upon retirement, he was given the title of Emeritus. During his career, Weisberg also had a stint as President of the Association of Historians of Nineteenth-Century Art.
In 1995, he was honored by the Government of France by being named Chevalier of the Ordre des Arts et des Lettres.[3]
In 2008, a festschrift was produced in Weisberg's honor titled Twenty-First-Century Perspectives on Nineteenth-Century Art: Essays in Honor of Gabriel P. Weisberg.[4] The publication included thirty essays from art historians, who were colleagues or students of Weisberg. At the end of that year, the Minneapolis Institute of Art exhibited nineteenth- and twentieth-century Realist drawings from the collection of Weisberg and his wife, Yvonne.[5]
Throughout his career, Weisberg has published extensively within the field of art history and has studied artists in-depth such as François Bonvin, Léon Bonvin, and Félix Bracquemond, and topics such as Artistic Japan and Japonisme. He has placed special focus on nineteenth- and twentieth-century French art.
