| Polish American artist Morris Katz plies his trade in Manhattan`s lower east side neighborhood on June 16, 1996. Katz, known as `King of Schlock Art,` was the holder of 2 Guiness world records: for the world`s fastest painter and the most prolific painter. He typically used 12`` x 16` canvases, and once created a painting in 30 seconds. He completed over 280,000 works. He survived Nazi concentration camps and immigrated to the United States after the war and a period in a displaced persons camp in Europe. He was also a carpenter, a comic and a tv personality of sorts. He died after a stroke in The Bronx, New York on November 12, 2010, at the age of 78. |
