Israel Rubinstein

Israeli, b. 1944
Israel Rubinstein was born in 1944 in Petach-Tikvah, Israel. Since his very early childhood Israel's father, who was a painter and a graphic artist, was aware of his son's talent. He sent the boy to various painting courses and introduced him to his artist friends, who helped the young Rubinstein arrange his first exhibition at the Emmanuel Hall of his hometown Rammat-Gan. Like all Israelis, Rubinstein was drafted to the Israeli army at the age of 18. He spent two and a half years in the armed forces. Upon his discharge, Rubinstein went on to study at the Institute of Art in Tel-Aviv with renewed energy. He studied there for three years. Those years provided him with the foundation to his artistic career. In 1967 Rubinstein took part in a group exhibit of Israeli artists at the Z.O.A. (Zionist Organization of America) House in Tel-Aviv. Thereafter, he left for a one-man exhibition in Louisville, Kentucky. Up until his trip to the U.S. Rubinstein was using oil colors on canvas, making thick layers of spatula. The main topic of his paintings was the City of Jaffa and its beggars. He came back from Kentucky with new inspiration for a change in his thinking and style. He was particularly influenced by the well-known masters, in whose work he found similarities to his own ideas. His fruitful imagination and his inborn sense of humor helped him in his new endeavors and became part of his new art. Rubinstein's techniques started to change as well. Instead of thick layers, he started making transparent ones. In addition, he started creating gentle and gradual shades. In 1974 Rubinstein exhibited in his work at the Yael Zeevi Gallery in Rammat-Aviv, Israel. In 1985 Rubinstein settled down with his wife, Liat, in New York, where he found fertile soil for his artistic development. All his numerous exhibitions around the country were tremendously successful and the paintings were sold to corporate and private collectors.

The City 's Conscience
By Anatole Krasnyansky
Located in San Francisco, CA

About the artist: Anatole Krasnyansky (born in 1930; Kiev, Ukraine) is a Ukrainian-American artist who has gained prominence by pioneering a new watercolor technique. Krasnyansky added paper texture as a component of his watercolors. With this new process, Krasnyansky added texture and depth to the watercolor medium and expanded its expressive possibilities to a level usually associated with oil painting. Biography He was born in Kiev, growing up and living during the times when Ukraine was a part of the U.S.S.R. Krasnyansky received master's degrees in fine art and architecture. He found that the freedom of expression that he needed in his artwork could not be found within the strictures of the Soviet Union and moved to the United States in 1975. In the U.S., Krasnyansky found valuable use for his knowledge of architecture, design and his imagination. and found success in multiple artistic pursuits. Almost surreal, Krasnyansky’s figures are recognizable form while incorporating elements of his Eastern heritage, the cubist ideas of Picasso and Braque, and as well as American culture. Accomplishments Krasnyansky began working as a scenic artist for ABC and CBS, including the production of two Academy Awards shows. He became a set designer for Universal Studios (credits including The Blues Brothers and Battlestar Galactica...
