About the artist:
David Sharir began his study of art in Tel Aviv at the Avni Institute. He continued advanced studies with Aharon Kahana, Yonathan Simon and Yisrael Paldi.
After a solo exhibit in Tel Aviv in 1959, age 21, he furthered his studies in Italy at the Academia delle Belle Arte in Florence from 1959-1961, followed by three years of study from 1961-1964 at the university of Rome from which he graduated with a degree in architecture and set design.
Returning to Israel, Sharir experimented briefly with abstraction. The year 1966 was a benchmark in his life. He married, moved from Tel Aviv to Jaffa and here his hallmark style truly developed.
The strongest element of Sharir's unique style is decorative, reflecting a variety of artistic influences that shaped his life both in Italy and Israel. His work belongs to the tradition of "decorative art" which emphasizes ornamentation and design as a way of expression. Historic influences are prominent: Byzantine mosaics from Ravenna, Italy, Sienese trecento frescoes, Russian folk art transmitted by his parents, Persian miniatures and Hebrew calligraphy. He paints large geometric areas of vibrant colors juxtaposed with intricately patterned scenes detailed with hybrid animals and birds, trees and flowers, filled with stylized bearded men who appear in various poses: bricklayers, tennis players, jugglers, swimmers; people hanging laundry, chatting, angels and on. In the earliest paintings he immortalized Jaffa, the narrow alleyways, his studio, his family, the orange grove and his family.
To write of Sharir only as a painter does not do justice to the artist. He is equally admired and recognized as an imaginative theater set designer. has designed for Israel's most prominent theaters, including Batsheva Dance Company, Inbal, Habima and Cameri. With his designs for "Queen Esther" at the Cameri in 1966, he embarked professionally with his signature style. Tee Work of David Sharir is held in several collections and museums including, The Philadelphia Museum of Art, Philadelphia and The Israel Museum, Jerusalem.

Untitled Mohammad Ariyaei Contemporary Iranian art painting oriental art drawing
By Mohammad Ariyaei
Located in Paris, FR
Acrylic paint on paper
Hand-signed by the artist
Unique work
THE THOUSAND AND ONE NIGHTS OF MOHAMMAD ARIYAEI
" Gentleness and oriental wisdom follow the supercharged bubbling to which we were accustomed from the previous deliberately art brut exhibition by Mohammad ARIYAEI. The Iranian painter's imagination moves serenely from the wildest frenzy to the meditative calm of great, fabulous stories. The artist then took pleasure in pouring the volcanic torrent of his barbaric figures onto the delicate latticework with which he is accustomed to lining his backgrounds with the patience of an illuminating monk. Already sweetness and paroxysm coexisted. Now gentleness wins. The trained imagination of the painter, yet spontaneously bubbling, by instinct as much as by erudition, has no difficulty in reconnecting with the abundant oriental tradition of the thousand and one nights, which, like a long underground river, resurfaces at the light of his painting. Spring renewal of traditions still alive. Systematic filling of space, a sort of oriental version of the Riches Heures...
