But in 1938 that world was destroyed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWhen I was 11 years old, Hitler took over Austria, which automatically changed my whole life,\u201d she would later recount in <a href=\"https:\/\/repository.charlotte.edu\/islandora\/object\/uncc%3A1613\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">an oral history interview with J. Murrey Atkins Library Special Collections<\/a>. \u201cYou could say I lost my identity overnight.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Lieberman\u2019s mother was Catholic, so she was categorized as a \u201cMischling\u201d \u2013 mixed Jewish and non-Jewish. Her father left Austria, and for the next nine years, Lieberman and her mother both suffered and miraculously survived the persecution, violence, and deprivation of the Holocaust and World War II and their aftermath. In the midst of the fear and grief, Lieberman found solace in her art.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cMy love was drawing \u2013 it had always been drawing \u2013 and that\u2019s how I retained my equilibrium,\u201d she said in her interview.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Lieberman died in 2021, leaving behind an extraordinary legacy as an artist and an activist. Following her death, her children, Miriam and Larry Lieberman, donated 30 of their mother\u2019s artworks to the Mint Museum of Art, recognizing the long association she had had with the museum. Last January, the Mint Uptown mounted an exhibition of the work, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mintmuseum.org\/exhibition\/feeding-the-stone\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><em>Feeding the Stone<\/em><\/a>, which is on view indefinitely.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignleft\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/cws.charlotte.edu\/backup-coaa\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/807\/2024\/05\/547-Artist-as-Mother.jpg\" alt=\"image of work\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" class=\"lazyload\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 350px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 350\/322;\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Making Sense of Her World<\/strong><br>When Marianne Lieberman and her mother joined her father in New York in 1947, she had had very little formal art education. She became a pattern maker in the garment industry and \u201cwent to every available class of art that I could afford to pay for myself,\u201d she later recounted. In the next five years, she married, started a family, and moved to Charlotte, where she soon began to take art classes at the Mint. She would spend the next two decades nurturing her children and her talents, negotiating the demands of the home with those of the studio \u2013 a topic that sometimes emerged in her art. <em>(Pictured right, &#8220;The Artist as Mother.&#8221;)<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI learned who I was by painting,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In 1973, Lieberman entered the Bachelor of Creative Arts (BCA) program at UNC Charlotte with a range of artistic skills and an impressive body of work that had been exhibited in local shows. What the open and interdisciplinary curriculum offered her was the opportunity to read widely and the space to dig more fully into both her own personal history and the contemporary world around her. The art she produced, her daughter Miriam said recently, \u201cwas a result of what she was reading and studying,\u201d including \u201ca lot of mythology,\u201d psychology, and books by the poet and classicist Robert Graves, who would become a prominent inspiration for her. <em>(At left, the lithograph &#8220;For Robert Graves.&#8221;)<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With the effort to ratify the Equal Rights Amendment in 1972 and the passage of Roe v. Wade in 1973, Lieberman also became vigorously engaged with the feminist movement, reading, for example, books by the feminist poet and essayist Adrienne Rich. With her husband Gerald, she founded the state affiliate of the National Abortion Rights Action League (NARAL). All of these topics found a place in her work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cIt was through her art that she tried to make sense of the world,\u201d said Miriam Lieberman.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignleft\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/cws.charlotte.edu\/backup-coaa\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/807\/2024\/05\/33-For-Robert-Graves-of-Deja_1990-1.jpg\" alt=\"image of work\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" class=\"lazyload\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 300px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 300\/395;\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>The Demand of the Stone<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Several of those pieces made while a student at UNC Charlotte are now in the Mint collection and on view at the uptown location. They are lithographs, the medium that Lieberman \u201cthought were her best work,\u201d said her daughter. Lithography is a process of printing from a drawing etched on a stone. Lieberman had first learned lithography in a summer program in San Miguel de Allende, Mexico, where she studied for several summers at the Instituto Allende &#8212; sometimes with children in tow. Lithography became, she later said, \u201ca magical thing\u201d for her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cTo work on the stone is a totally entrancing experience\u2026lithography is really the expression that I find is most demanding, and allows me to be spontaneous, because that\u2019s the demand of the stone, in my opinion. And the stone works with the artist.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While she was at UNC Charlotte, Liebermann became connected, through the recommendation of professor Martha Strawn (now retired), with Penland School of Craft in the mountains of North Carolina, where she continued her lithography training. Her graduating exhibition was held at The Light Factory \u2013 two rooms of photography, drawings, etchings, and lithography.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI was very elated to have been able to do all that work and have this exhibit,\u201d Lieberman later described. \u201cIt was a milestone in my life.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/cws.charlotte.edu\/backup-coaa\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/807\/2024\/05\/IMG_1162.jpg\" alt=\"three prints hangin in Mint Museum\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" class=\"lazyload\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1800px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1800\/1012;\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Three prints from Lieberman&#8217;s studies at UNC Charlotte, on view at the Mint Museum of Art in uptown Charlotte.

They represent the themes she pursued as a student: women&#8217;s rights, Classical mythology, and her own personal history.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Strawn, who remained friends with Lieberman long after her graduation, said in a recent interview that Lieberman brought so much to the BCA program and her fellow students.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cIn that group environment (fostered by the BCA curriculum), you really learn from each other so much, from working on projects together. Marianne really contributed to other students who were so much younger.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Strawn said that Lieberman\u2019s difficult youth instilled great courage in her, which emerged in her art.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cMarianne was so focused on how people were treated, how humanity was treated, how women were treated. She put her full heart and conscience in her work. She didn\u2019t back down.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But while she was \u201ca fighter,\u201d Strawn added, Lieberman also \u201chad a grace and elegance about her,\u201d that was as strong as her integrity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cHopefully I learned some grace from her.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/cws.charlotte.edu\/backup-coaa\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/807\/2024\/06\/549-Utopia_1970.jpg\" alt=\"Painting titled Utopia by Lieberman\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" class=\"lazyload\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1800px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1800\/1472;\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Lieberman&#8217;s painting, &#8220;Utopia,&#8221; from 1970.
