Houston-Cuernavaca (1962-1966)

 

In September 1962, Ary's physical condition was less favorable. Sarah Lack (Ary's sister) suggested that we permanently take one of the apartments which she and her husband owned. We decided to do this and moved back to Houston.

In 1963, Ary accepted the invitation of Dr. Alfred Neumann, Dean of the College of Arts and Sciences at the University of Houston, and Peter Guenther; Chairman of the Art Department, to have a showing of some of his non-representational work at the University for a month beginning sometime in November.

From then on it was a losing fight as far as Ary's physical condition was concerned. When he aroused himself enough to paint, the old spirit was still there and some of his very finest canvases were painted in his last few months. Ary's death occurred on January 28, 1967. He was 76 years old.
