Builders at the Kolkhoz

circa 1930`s

About the Item

Born in Ukraine in 1897, Ryback lived in Moscow in 1919 and 1920 and worked closely with the artists of the Russian avant-garde, in particular with El Lissitsky, Pevsner and Gabo. In 1921, he moved to Berlin where he associated with Der Strum. In 1925 he was invited back to Soviet Russia to design sets and costumes for the Moscow theatre. He finally settled in Paris in 1926 and there his artistic themes turned nostalgically to Russian Jewish shtetl life. In 1935, on the eve of the first large retrospective at Galerie Wildenstein, he suddenly died. In a review published in La Presse, Waldemar George commented: “Ryback is not a realist given to the interpretation of dramatic subjects. He is a visionary who transformed rags and tatters into sumptuous brocades. By virtue of his magical colors, human waifs are changed into kings of legend, the desolated sites of Eastern Europe glow with intense brilliance, and his muddy farmyard evoke a rich tapestry, woven with silken threads.”

    This beautiful realist landscape painting by Ayelet was painted near her studio just south of Caesarea in Israel. It comes with wooden frame and ready to hang. "The majority of my work focuses on landscapes and animals. My painting process combines both painting in open air, and in studio. It involves long, direct and investigative observation of the object. whether it's landscape, still life or portrait. At my work, I try to faithfully represent the light and open spaces while expressing my own private experience. In addition, I explore the medium of painting and the elements of form in the art of painting. The mediums I use for my paintings and drawing are oil colors and charcoal while using traditional classic techniques. My paintings are a window to reality as seen by my eyes my mind and soul."
