Please find details of “Still life” by Ori Reisman
Still life captures the attention by the bright and intense colors. Famous for the landscapes, the artist here observes the massive chair as a firm surface, that goes beyond the painting borders. Defined clear lines together with whole geometrical structure correlate with two vivid handkerchieves in the forefront. They add the sense of motility and light to this stable stationary composition.
Ori Reisman
Ori Reisman was born in Tel Yosef. He studied at the studio of Yitzhak Frenkel, an artist of the l’École de Paris. Later in Paris he attended painter Jean Souverbie’s Monumental Art workshop. There he got acquainted with Israeli artists Lea Nikel, Eliahu Gat, and Michael Gross. Already during studies after Yitzhak Frenkel bright expressive colors became a significant element of his works, that predetermined the atmosphere of landscapes, portraits and still-life. Interestingly, Reisman’s approach to landscapes alludes to the bodily forms.
Ori Reisman exhibited at major museums, including the Tel Aviv Museum of Art and the Israel Museum. Besides, there was his retrospective exhibition in the Tel Aviv Museum of Art in 2004.
