[edit]

The following was removed from the article because it is unsourced. It was added by User:RICO324 with the note "I have added information from my personal knowlege gained from my friendship with goeritz from 1960 until his death". I'm adding it here for review and use by other editors:

During World War II he refused conscription into the German army. The Nazis pursued him across Europe into Spain and ultimately into North Africa where he remained until the war ended. During his sojourn in Spain he founded the influential "School of Altimira"named for the site of the famous cave paintings. Following the war he was invited to go to Mexico to teach.His appointment to the prestigious position was greeted with hostility by "The Big Three" muralists {Orozco, Rivera and Seqiueros} who feared that his radical ideas would erode their position as the reigning school of art. They were unsuccessful and Goeritz's influence quickly spread among the younger generation of artists who were eager for a change. Goeritz is perhaps best known for his Satelite City Towers, a group of five prism shaped, painted concrete towers situated in the median of the highway leading into Mexico City. The architect Luis Baragan collaborated with Goeritz on the the project.

Any input would be appreciated. Mariokempes 16:56, 14 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
