Igael Tumarkin was born in 1933 in Dresden, Germany. Immigrated to Israel in 1935. He studied art with the sculptor Rudi Lehman at Ein Hod, and in 1955 returned to Germany where he worked at the Berliner Ensemble with Bertolt Brecht. He worked in Europe until 1961 as a sculptor and set designer. His travels took him to Africa, the Near and Far East, and to the USA, where he lived for several years. Since the end of the Seventies he has been living and working in Tel Aviv.
The artist has worked extensively in the medium of printmaking, producing over three hundred prints. He was encouraged by the print studios founded during those years in the USA, where prominent artists such as Jasper Jones and Robert Rauschenberg began to engage in printmaking.
Tumarkin prints of the sixties were at crossroads between Abstract Expressionism and Pop Art, and between Pop Art and abstract movements that followed. In addition, he was influenced by the Surrealism and Dada movements whose impact was expressed in the combination of free brushstrokes and drip paintings together with the use of such materials as newspaper cuttings, photographs and junk.
He has participated in various international exhibitions, and won many awards. His works are displayed in private collections and in museums both in Israel and abroad.

IGAEL TUMARKIN
Menashe Kadishman was an Israeli sculptor, painter, and graphic artist best known for his colorful paintings of sheep and large-scale metal sculptures. Kadishman’s youth as a shepherd at a kibbutz informed the sheep motif found throughout his work.
​
Born on August 21, 1932 in Tel Aviv, Israel, he studied under Moshe Sternschuss at the Avni Institute of Art and Design in Tel Aviv before moving to London in 1959, where he studied at St. Martin’s School of Art and the Slade School of Art. The artist’s work from immediately after art school in London was heavily indebted to the aesthetics of Minimalist sculpture. He has also cited Henry Moore as one of his biggest influences. Kadishman died on May 8, 2015 in Ramat Gan, Israel.
Today, his works are in the collections of the Storm King Art Center in Mountainville, NY, the Jewish Museum in New York, the Nasher Sculpture Center in Dallas, and the Tel Aviv Museum of Art, among others.
