Signed and Numbered Framed Brutalist Print by Moshe Tamir

About the Item

Signed and numbered framed brutalist print by Moshe Tamir. Numbered 9/12 and signed "M. Tamir" lower right. Beautifully framed. Moshe Tamir (Hebrew: ??? ?????; 1924 – 13 November 2004) was an Odessa, Russia, Russian-born Israeli painter. Tamir completed his studies at Israel’s Bezalel Academy of Art in 1947 where he won the Hermann Struck prize presented by the painter Mordechai Ardon. In 1952, Tamir graduated from the Academy of Fine Arts in Florence, where he specialised in fresco and monumental painting, and was chosen by his teacher, the renowned fresco artist Prozzo Parchi, to become his assistant in painting murals at the Church of St. Eugene in Rome. Tamir’s work encompasses oil, fresco, drawing and gouache. One of Tamir’s masterpieces – a magnificent fresco Amnon Wounded, part of a permanent exhibition at the Tel Aviv Museum – earned him honorable citation at the Venice Biennale. In 1954 Tamir moved to the Montparnasse in Paris, where he lived and worked for seven years alongside Constantin Brâncusi, Jean Tinguely and Jean Dubuffet, whilst deepening his practice at the École des Beaux-Arts. There he developed “New Figuration” – paintings crammed with shapes and mythological images in thick, colorful and intoxicating layers of paint. In 1958 he exhibited at the Museum of Modern Art in Paris and was voted one of the top twenty young artists in Europe, which earned him a Young Artist Award in Israel. Following this exhibition Tamir was invited to paint monumental frescoes in Chicago and Mexico City. Between 1956 and 1986, he was invited to present four exhibitions at the Palais des Beaux-Arts in Brussels that included a joint exhibition with Pablo Picasso. With newspapers headlines declaring him a “Renaissance Man”, the opening of the 1986 exhibition hosted many important guests, among which were King Baudouin and Queen Fabiola, the Belgian Prime Minister, ministers of the Belgian Parliament and heads of the European community. Tamir won First Prize for lithography at the Sao Paulo Biennale, his work remaining on permanent display at the Rio de Janeiro Museum.
