From Worthpoint.com: Finn Nord was born in Norway in 1907. He began working as an underwater engineer after emigrating to the United States. He gained a reputation as an amateur painter in the New York area. He had solo exhibitions at Vesterheim and in small galleries in the areas where he lived. Nord died in 1997. Nord was part of the Norwegian Art and Craft Club of Brooklyn, New York, which was organized in 1938 by a group of amateur and semi-professional artists. The objective of the club was to promote interest in art and craft among its members and the public through exhibitions, lectures, discussions, and classes. The club, although founded and led by Norwegian Americans, did not restrict its membership by ethnicity or by gender. It also gave equal status to fine art and Norwegian decorative arts. Members created and exhibited paintings, sculpture, carving, rosemaling (Norwegian decorative painting), tapestry, and knitting.There were 28 founding members. By the late 1940s, the club membership had grown to more than one hundred. Some more well-known members of the club included Bernhard Berntsen, Michael Hoiland, Karli Waagenes Johnsen, Karl Larsen, Vilna Jørgen Morpurgo, Maria Mundal, Finn Nord, Thorn Norheim, Sigurd Olsen, August Satre, and William Torjesen.
