Born in New Jersey, U.S.A, in 1924, Gino Hollander was a self-taught artist. Between 1950 and 1960, Gino and wife Barbara were film producers and directors; after the 1960s, Hollander began to make a name for himself as an artist in New York during the abstract expressionist movement, and was a pioneer of acrylic painting at the time. He moved his family to Spain between 1962 and 1990, and continued to create paintings. In 1982, he built Museo Hollander on his own in Cortijo de la Sierra, displaying his own paintings and some Spanish relics. There are a number of Hollander Galleries around the world, including New York, London, Spain, and Germany.
