born in berlin, Germany, in november 1924, Martin Schreiber was a student of the late reuben tam at the brooklyn Museum Art School. Mr. Schreiber enjoyed a long and successful art career both as a commercial art director in new york city with dell publishing and as a visual artist working in hard edged geometric abstraction. perhaps stemming from his early apprenticeships in the diamond trade, his work is a commitment to the hard edged experience. in addition to new york city, Mr. Screiber exhibited in florida, canada, and brazil. Known for his highly disciplined art form, Mr. Schreibers work was described by newsdays Malcolm preston as almost surgical precision of craftsmanship. through subtle changes of color and intensity, his hard edged band style produces soft edge light vibration and illusions of spatial expansion. in his sculpture and wall constructions, the artist directs small progressions in shape and size towards the same spatial expansion witnessed in his paintings.

the Museum of Geometric and MAdi Art opened in February 2003. It is the first museum with a concentration on MAdi art, which is always nonrepresentational, hard-edged, and comes out of the frame. Geometric art may be in a rectangular format, which is rarely the case with MAdi; usually, only prints may be rectangular. the

museum shows related geometric, constructivist, and op art work. the museum holds workshops for students and seniors which are sponsored by members and a special grant by Susan and lawrence Hirsch. Arcadia Salon is a wine and cheese event hosted

at the museum with discussions on hot topics in art led by local and international artists. this exhibit includes a discussion led by Judith Schreiber, daughter of the late Martin Schreiber.
