About the Item
Tamarisk, 2012 oil on linen, 31-1/2 x 31-1/2 inches
Tamarisk is part of a series of recent paintings by Israeli artist Gilad Efrat of the Negev desert. Comprising over half of Israel’s land area, the dry, rocky, and desolate Negev is, as the artist describes, the nation’s backyard, the place where the state keeps everything it doesn’t want near its more populous centers: trash, prisons, military, and energy installations. The Negev is also home to rich biblical lore, as well as nomadic Bedouin tribes who have historically not conformed to Israel’s administration of the territory. Efrat was born in Beer Sheba, the Negev’s largest city, and he has depicted the region before, most notably painting aerial views of archeological sites (2001-02) and another artist’s photo negatives of the Ansaar detention camp (2004-05).
In this current series of paintings, Efrat works, for the first time, from photographs that he shot himself on travels through the Negev. The medium to large-scale oil on linen paintings depict views of Bedouin settlements, broad desert panoramas, and close encounters with tamarisk, a species of bush-tree that offers protection from the desert sun and wind. Without ignoring the religious and political narratives specific to the Negev, Efrat has focused his camera lens and the resulting paintings on the seemingly timeless qualities of this developing landscape. In each painting he attempts to convey the unusual physical and specifically optical experience of exploring the expansive Negev.
