After he graduated he traveled for over a year in Europe, returning to New York and Connecticut. [2] He began creating prints using a variety of techniques including aquatint, drypoint, etching, and lithography. In 1934 he and fellow artist Martin Lewis started the School for Printmakers, where they taught printmaking. The school closed in 1935 and Landeck went on to work with Stanley William Hayter at Atelier 17. [1] In 1953 Landeck received a Guggenheim Fellowship. [3]

Peter Grippe was an American sculptor, printmaker, and painter. As a sculptor, he worked in bronze, terracotta, wire, plaster, and found objects. His "Monument to Hiroshima" series (1963) used found objects cast in bronze sculptures to evoke the chaotic humanity of the Japanese city after its incineration by atomic bomb. Other Grippe Surrealist sculptural works address less warlike themes, including that of city life. However, his expertise extended beyond sculpture to ink drawings, watercolor painting, and printmaking (intaglio). He joined and later directed Atelier 17, the intaglio studio founded in London and moved to New York at the beginning of World War II by its founder, Stanley William Hayter. Today, Grippe's 21 Etchings and Poems, a part of the permanent collection at the Davis Museum and Cultural Center at Wellesley College in Wellesley, Massachusetts, is available as part of the museum's virtual collection.
