Dialogue # 18 Birthing
2005 |
)
|
| Inspired by my studies of the teachings of the noted philosopher, Martin Buber (the famous I-Thou / I-It paradigm) and its application in modern Gestalt psychology. The I-Thou Dialogues show two faces in harmony and balance, while in the I-It paintings (which I call Anti-logues), the second face is diminished or non-existent. Birthing can be considered the primal example of the I – THOU dialogue paradigm. |

| Education and biography | |
| Central HS (211), B.A. Haverford College. Never formally studied painting in art school. In the 60's I was an "underground" filmmaker and made the well regarded: "Eargogh", starring Jack Smith as Vincent. Between 1970 and 1994 worked as film director, mainly for Israel TV, as well as creating videoart. My transition to painting came accidentally. Stills from my videos attracted a local gallery which deemed it worthy for an exhibition. I quickly learned to transfer their essential design to canvas using airbrush and other techniques. Since 1995 I have created over 400 paintings, exhibited in galleries & museums in Israel and USA. |
