Timeline

2021

Philip Zuchman was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in August 2021 and died at home in September.

2019

Philip Zuchman spent the final decades of his life living in West Philadelphia with his wife, painter Deborah Gross-Zuchman. The couple restored their 19th century home and studio and occasionally held arts and culture events there up until the onset of the Coronavirus pandemic in 2019. The house features their paintings, carvings, mosaics and murals. In 2013, Philip was named an Honorary Lifetime Member of the Philadelphia Watercolor Society. In 2019, the Puffin Foundation awarded Philip a grant for “Lamentations,” a handmade book dedicated to people, past and present, who have suffered from migration, displacement and exile. Zuchman also received the Albert Nelson Marquis Lifetime Achievement Award in 2020.

2013

Zuchman served as president of the National Forum of Professional Artists, vice president of Philadelphia Artists Equity, and vice president of the Philadelphia Watercolor Society. He was a Professor of Studio Art and Aesthetics, Emeritus, at the Art Institute of Philadelphia until 2013. Zuchman’s paintings have been exhibited internationally as part of the U.S. State Department’s Art in Embassies Program, for which he was a Cultural Ambassador.

2002

Zuchman worked primarily with oils and encaustics. For much of his career, he has focused on painting landscapes en plein air. Zuchman explored in his paintings humanity’s interdependence with nature, saying, "Landscapes are political. There are things in landscapes which we don't think of today as symbols—the road that moves through the landscape, the touch of a building, the fence separating borders, the edges of town. All these things combined together give a picture of man's relationship to the environment." His work also explored broader themes such as social ecology, war, and the possibilities of humanism. "Artists work to expose the nature of existence, to communicate feelings, to activate consciousness, increase human knowledge, to promote justice, and education. They are activists and pioneers who struggle in their lives against forces of isolation, poverty, discrimination, bad legislation, and being misunderstood by the public," he wrote in his "Call to Action." His commitment to art as a social practice led to his inclusion in several exhibits, including "Art From Detritus" in NYC and "All of Us or None." In 2002, Zuchman was featured in Wendy Weinberg's TV special "The Art of Activism," where he said, "I'm willing to go to great lengths sometimes to make a point. When issues grab a hold of me personally—issues of taxes that artists have to pay that are prejudicial, issues of censorship—I get to be a troublemaker. And I'm going to go and write letters and make phone calls. I'm going to do whatever I can do to possibly alter that situation. And I think artists should do this, I think this is very important. We should all be doing the critique of the world we live in."

1968

After his discharge from the army, he returned to Manhattan in 1968 to paint. During this time, he studied with Arthur Foster at the Art Students League of New York. In 1971 the Salmagundi Club awarded him its four-year Young Artist’s Scholarship. Zuchman moved up to a small farmhouse in Walden, Vermont that year to pursue an MA in painting at Goddard College, where he studied with James Gahagan. In 1973 he moved to Philadelphia, PA, where he married fellow artist Deborah Gross.

1961

Although Zuchman did not finish high school, Queens College accepted him in 1961. He studied philosophy and writing there, graduating in 1965. He won the Peter Pauper Press Award for two novelettes: Father Never Went to Church But Loved the Soil and A Mass for an Ass. In 1966 Zuchman served as a psychological research specialist and French interpreter in the U.S. Army. While stationed in Monterey, California he wrote a script based on O. Henry’s story "The Gift of the Magi" that was performed by the Presidio Players in 1966 under the direction of Edward Bach.
