Theodore Roszak was a visual artist of the machine age. Born in Poland but raised in Chicago, Roszak trained at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago and began his career in drawing, printmaking, and painting. In the 1930s his artistic practice grew to encompass photography and sculpture, and he is primarily remembered for his pioneering work with sheet metal and welded steel.
