Biography

Seidler was born in London, England in 1912.[3]

After fears of German invasion in 1940, she moved with her Jewish husband and son, David Seidler, to New York city.[1][3] There, she studied under Hayter at Atelier 17 during the second world war,[1] learning the techniques of print-making.[3] In 1945 she returned to England, where she had her first solo exhibitions at the art schools of Norwich, Ipswich and Great Yarmouth.[4] She immigrated back to New York in 1948 and again studied at Atelier 17.[3] Her first solo exhibition in New York was at Wittenborn Gallery in 1954.[5]

Seidler is known for her use of techniques such as intaglio engraving, woodcut, lucite engraving and collage with paper.[3] Her work is included in the collection of the Seattle Art Museum.[6]

Seidler died on October 30, 2010, in New York City.[1]
