Tereza (Terry) Haass, printmaker, painter, and sculptor, was born in Cesky Tesin, Czechoslovakia on November 17, 1923. She fled her native country and Nazism in the late 1930s, relocating to France. In Paris, she studied art and art history until she was once again displaced by war. In 1941, she moved to New York and received a scholarship to the Art Students’ League where she studied with Will Barnet. Haass began working at Stanley William Hayter’s experimental workshop, Atelier 17, in 1946 and she directed the workshop in 1950 when Hayter returned to Paris. In 1951, Haass received a Wooley scholarship to study printmaking and a Fulbright Travel Grant that allowed her to visit Norway. She eventually settled in Paris where she worked at Atelier Lacourière & Frélaut. She studied at the school of the Louvre for many years. Her work is represented in major public collections including the Guggenheim Museum, the Library of Congress, the Metropolitan Museum, the Carnegie Institute, the Cleveland Museum of Art, the Victoria and Albert Museum, the Bibliothéque nationale de France, and the Israel National Museum. There is a large collection of her works in the permanent collection of the Olomouc Museum of Art in Olomouc, Czech Rekpublic. In 2006 the museum organized an extensive retrospective by Haass titled "Light - Space - Time." The exhibition offered a profile of her work from the 1940s to the present. She exhibited her graphic works, paintings, sculptures and costume designs. Terry Haass died in Paris on March 1, 2016.

From 1926 he attended evening courses at the Escuela de Artes y Oficios "Llotja" taught by Félix Mestres, Josep Mongrell and Angel Ferrant. Mongrell found Clavé a place as a house painter's apprentice in 1927 because Clavé was fascinated by the hands-on side of painting and especially by the materials used for such work and wanted to learn how to prepare paints. During the Spanish Civil War Clavé served as a draughtsman for the Republican government, but at the end of the war. he fled to France. After internment at Les Haras camp in Perpignan, Clavé settled in Paris in 1939, drawing comics and working as an illustrator. During the 1940s Clavé's painting showed the stylistic influence of Bonnard, Vuillard, Rouault and especially Picasso, with whom he became acquainted in 1944. From 1946 Clavé did numerous designs for ballet and theatre in Paris, Munich, London and New York; in the 1950s he turned to book illustration.
