Lorser Feitelson and Helen Lundeberg Home and Studio

In 1951, Lorser Feitelson and Helen Lundeberg established their home and studios at this location. In 1959, it was here that a group of abstract painters, including Feitelson, met with curator Jules Langsner to discuss an exhibition of their work. Because of the streamlined, geometric forms they used in their works, these artists came to be known as the “Abstract Classicists,” or California hard-edge painters.
