* HILDA GOLDWAG (1912 - 2008),JANET,oil on board, signed60cm x 95cm Framed.Note: Hilda Goldwag was born in Vienna in 1912. As an artistically gifted child she attended Art School in her native city and graduated in 1938 with distinction. With the growth of Nazism life became increasingly fraught for anyone of Jewish origin. She got a permit to “escape” to Scotland in 1939, and worked as a domestic servant in a manse in West Linton. Her family were due to follow in September 1939 - the day war broke out. All died in Dachau, including her four year old nephew. During the war years she worked (as an enemy alien) in factory jobs. Living in Hill Street, Garnethill, near the Glasgow Art School she had various art related jobs and soon took up painting again. She became a familiar sight with her easel and paints and brushes in the area, and her paintings began to appear in exhibitions. She moved to a low rise flat in Yoker/Knightswood after the Great Storm of 1968 took the roof off her city centre flat.Painting had become a full-time occupation with solo shows in Greenock and Gourock in the 1970’s , in the Royal Glasgow Institute’s Kelly Gallery in Glasgow, and the Lillie Gallery in Milngavie in the eighties. A major exhibition of her work appeared at the University of Strathclyde’s Collins Gallery in 2005.She painted until a year or two before her death in January 2008, trailing around the area - the parks and canal banks - with her gear stacked on a supermarket trolley. She ventured out to Kirkintilloch and other spots in bussing distance from Glasgow - returning with her large canvases or boards, the paint still wet, spread on the bus luggage racks. After Hilda Goldwag died her little flat was stacked with paintings. Most of these were consigned to McTear's who staged a hugely successful auction with prices that would have surprised and delighted the artist. Her work had reached a new, wider, deserved and enthusiastic audience.
