Spiritual Life- Richard Mock

July 30 @ 10:00 am - 5:00 pm

Richard Mock’s exhibit Spiritual Life will be on view at MoF on the 2nd floor.  Richard Mock (1944 to July 28, 2006) was a printmaker, painter, sculptor, muralist and editorial cartoonist.  Mock was best known for his linocut illustrations that appeared on the Op-Ed page of the New York Times and from 1980 through 1996.  The works on view at MoF have been donated by his sister Bonnie Mock and husband Anthony Turr and represent the later part of Richard’s life.

Richard Mock was born in Long Beach, California in 1944.  Mock earned his bachelor’s degree, studying lithography and block printing at the University of Michigan.  Settling in New York City in 1968, Mock had exhibitions at 112 Greene Street, the Whitney Museum, Exit Art and before his death at the Sideshow Gallery in RedHook, Brooklyn.  Mock’s paintings, prints, drawings and small sculptures are on view at the Museum of Friends as he was a dear friend to both founders.  Mock was named the official portrait painter of the 1980 Olympic Winter Games in Lake Placid, New York.
