Favorite Jewish Artists: Modechai Levanon

Posted by genglish on January 31st, 2011 and filed under Jewish Art | 1 Comment »

My South African wife, who came to me late in life, is Jewish, and has spurred many new interests in me, one of which is a fascination with the many awesome accomplishments of talented jewish artists. Here are some haunting works by the Jewish artist Mordechai Levanon, 1901-1968. Born in Transylvania, Romania, Levanon immigrated to Israel in 1921, where he studied at the Bezalel Art Academy. Like so many of his fellow Israeli artists, Levanon was fascinated by the country’s special light and the way it affects color. Thanks to his splendid body of work and his many paintings of the holy cities of Jerusalem and Sfad, Levanon is considered a major pioneer of Israeli art, and has even been called “the Israeli Van Gogh.”
