| Born into the cloistered community of the Amana Society in January 1904, Carl Flick spent his life in West Amana, Iowa, raised by his parents, Peter and Wilhemine Flick, to respect handicrafts that provided sustenance for home life, even as the decorative arts were discouraged for their worldly aspects. Art instruction, in the Amana school program, was offered on Saturdays, and Flick thrived in the classes. By the late 1920s, the Amanas' residents slowly opened their views to artistic expression (showing 500 of 4747 characters). |
