Contemporary Israeli painters and sculptors, their work and life — this unique book, the first of its kind, provides a comprehensive account of Israeli art. The works, selected by well-known art critic Ran Shechori, trace the development of Israeli art which strives to transcend geographical barriers and be fully receptive to contemporary theories and innovations in the world of art. Some Israeli painters and sculptors, whose work is displayed here, can indeed claim a distinguished place in the international artists' community, despite the relatively brief existence of Israeli art and the absence of Jewish tradition in the plastic arts.
