A pioneer of serigraph printing, Myron Kozman studied and later taught at the Institute of Design (New Bauhaus) in Chicago. He developed the printmaking workshop there, and his abstract prints were among the first graphic productions of the Institute. Moholy-Nagy's only serigraph is a result of his collaboration with Kozman. Working for the WPA in the late 1930s, Kozman created abstract paintings for public spaces in the Chicago area.

 

Kozman exhibited at the Art Institute of Chicago, the United American Artists Gallery (Chicago), London Art Gallery (London), Exhibition Momentum (Chicago), the Chicago Museum of Art, the Denver Art Museum, the Baltimore Museum of Fine Art, and the Cincinnati Art Museum. His work is held in the permanent collections of the Art Institute of Chicago, the Library of Congress, and Northwestern University.
