	George Segal - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		George Segal (born February 13, 1934) is a well-known Jewish American film and stage actor who was born in Great Neck, Long Island, New York.
		Originally a stage actor and musician, Segal appeared in several nondescript films in the early 1960s before raising eyebrows in 1965 as a distraught newlywed in Ship of Fools and as a P.O.W. in King Rat.
		Segal was so appealing that too often he was asked to carry a film on his charm alone, especially in the 1970s.

	George Segal
		In addition to the striking sculptural environments that won him his reputation as an artist, Segal's early figure paintings, pastels from the 1960s, reliefs of the human figure, paraphrases of Cubist canvases and sculptures based on still-life paintings, extremely large portraits drawn during the 1990s and recent environments can be a revelation.
		Far removed from the wit and sophisticated detachment of their art, the subject Segal deals with is the human condition, its solitude and fragility, which he expresses with a strongly felt sympathy.
		The ensuing multimedia events likely influenced Segal, who, from this time on, began making life-size sculptures of people out of crude materials he was familiar with as a farmer: chicken wire, burlap and plaster.

	ArtForum: George Segal: the Holocaust, 1984 - Lincoln Park, San Francisco, California
		George Segal's extraordinary memorial proposes a line of inquiry strikingly different from the familiar exercise - at once useless and obscene - of comparing the Nazi murder machine to other mass exterminations in order to establish a hierarchy of historical horrors.
		The eleven figures in Segal's tableau, surrounded on three sides by a poured-concrete palisade, have been installed on the summit of a slope in Lincoln Park in San Francisco, slightly below a parking area and just to the side of a road leading to the California Palace of the Legion of Honor.
		What can be shown - what Segal shows us - is not the Holocaust as we might remember it, but rather the Holocaust as we must learn to see it for the first time.
