Bob Witz 1934-2021


Sorry to learn of Bob's passing. I met him in the early 70's when we lived around the corner from each other in Chelsea. We hung out with mutual friends now and again, and we traded art, this is the piece that I've had since the 70's. The paper is crumbling and I had it hanging for years but finally took it down. He was a real outsider, a legend in the art world. He was gentle, smart and a loner. He painted my loft when i got some money from an nea grant and like so many I lost touch with him. I would run into him now and again at the library on 23rd st but as I said we lost touch. Sad.
