About the Item
Fishers, ca. 1960, by Reuven Rubin (1893-1974)
Lithograph on paper
19 × 13 ⅜ inches unframed (48.26 x 33.985 cm)
Signed on bottom right
inscribed (330110 #01 x8345) on reverse bottom left
Edition 125/150
Description:
In this lithograph, Reuven Rubin proclaims his love for the mundane and the ordinary by illustrating a family of fishers. The triumvirate of figures-- that is, the father, mother, and child swaddled in the mother's arms-- are all living in a nondescript moment that is defined by fishing. Nothing is said of the identity of the family, nor where they are located. Rubin typically engages in depicting the quotidian as a love letter to the human race, straining out particularity to create images of romantic activity and life. This lithograph is emblematic of such an interest.

Reuven Rubin
Reuven Rubin- (November 13, 1893 - October 13, 1974) was a Romanian-born Israeli painter and Israel's first ambassador to Romania. Rubin Zelicovici (later Reuven Rubin) was born in Galaţi to a poor Romanian Jewish Hasidic family. He was the eighth of 13 children. In 1912, he left for Ottoman-ruled Palestine to study art at Bezalel Academy of Art and Design in Jerusalem. Finding himself at odds with the artistic views of the Academy's teachers, he left for Paris, France, in 1913 to pursue his studies at the École Nationale Supérieure des Beaux-Arts. At the outbreak of World War I, he was returned to Romania, where he spent the war years.
In 1921, he traveled to the United States with his friend and fellow artist, Arthur Kolnik, with whom he had shared a studio in Cernăuţi. In New York City, the two met artist Alfred Stieglitz, who was instrumental in organizing their first American show at the Anderson Gallery. Following the exhibition, in 1922, they both returned to Europe. In 1923, Rubin emigrated to Mandate Palestine.
Rubin met his wife, Esther, in 1928, aboard a passenger ship to Palestine on his return from a show in New York. She was a Bronx girl who had won a trip to Palestine in a Young Judea competition. He died in 1974.
