About the Item

At the table. Paper, watercolor, 55x75 cm Malda Muižule was born in 1937 in the family of a blacksmith. Graduated from Liepaja Applied Arts High School (1957). She continued her studies at the Department of Printmaking of the Latvian Academy of Arts, which she graduated in 1963 with a diploma thesis - etching "Rojas zvejnieki", thesis supervisor A. Apinis. Participates in exhibitions since 1963. Member of the Union of Artists since 1966. One of the most prominent etching masters in Latvia. Freely manages the etching technique in all its complexity, creates compositions directly on the metal plate. In the beginning, she worked in more linear etching technique ("Kuldīga", "Vecā Rīga", both 1967), but in the early 1970s, she was one of the first Latvian printmaking artists who began to intensively realize the specific possibilities of graphics in the use of color in complex multi-step etching, cultivating the variety of textures and colors. In the etchings of the 1980s, the intensity of color and the multiplicity of imagery increase, a deeper synthesis of ethnographic and world cultural impressions enters, the revelation of human feelings and natural processes in a unified artistic image becomes more complex. She has also developed the printing principles of the use of colors in the lithography technique. She has worked a lot in the watercolor technique, where the fragility of the drawing is combined with bright colors, great looseness of color. Also painted in oil technique. Worked in press and book graphics. Made cartoons, posters, artistic bookmarks.

He grew up writing poetry, essays and literary prose. In the 1960s, he was active in the Second Russian Avant-garde movement in the Soviet Union. In 1971, he immigrated to Israel. In 1975, he established the Leviathan school together with Avraham Ofek and Shmuel Ackerman, seeking to combine symbolism, metaphysics and Judaism in an all-inclusive “national style.” Grobman’s lithograph work employs images and symbols from Jewish mysticism and Kabbalah. His paintings incorporate texts in Russian and Hebrew. In addition to his artistic endeavors, he writes about art and aesthetics. The group combined conceptual art and "land art" with Jewish symbolism. Of the three of them Avraham Ofek had the deepest interest in sculpture and its relationship to religious symbolism and images. In one series of his works Ofek used mirrors to project Hebrew letters, words with religious or cabbalistic significance, and other images onto soil or man-made structures. In his work "Letters of Light" (1979), for example, the letters were projected onto people and fabrics and the soil of the Judean Desert. In another work Ofek screened the words "America", "Africa", and "Green card" on the walls of the Tel Hai courtyard during a symposium on sculpture Part of the generation of emigre Russian artists, many Jewish, that included Yuri Kuper, Komar and Melamid, Eduard Steinberg, Erik Bulatov, Viktor Pivovarov, Vladimir Yankilevsky, Ilya Kabakov and Grisha Bruskin.
