The art of Klee had a significant impact on Adler's work, Picassa i Wiethiichtera. He practiced oil painting, drawing, watercolor. The subject of his works is Jewish folklore, biblical-Talmudic threads, instruments and animals themes, abstract-surreal compositions (temporarily in the 1930s) and in the recent period of war experiences. Adler's paintings are characterized by a fascinating texture, the expressive violence of the composition, often monumental, and a brilliant interpretation of color, under these external elements of painting they hide the true drama of life: nostalgia, pessimism, sense of the inevitability of destiny.
