A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y ZAvigdor Arikha
Avigdor Arikha, Israeli, born Romania, 1929-2010. Active in Israel and France,
Avigdor Arikha (Dlugach) was born in Bukovina, Romania and grew up in Czernowitz. He attended Hebrew and secular schools. During World War II, his family was deported to a concentration camp in Transnistria. Arikha drawings document life in the camp. In 1944, he immigrated to Palestine with Youth Aliyah, which sent him to Kibbutz Ma'aleh Hahamisha. In 1946, he studied at the New Bezalel School of Art. In 1947, he joined a convoy bringing supplies to besieged Jerusalem and was badly wounded. In 1949, he was awarded a Youth Aliyah scholarship to study art in France. In 1951-1953, he resided in Jerusalem. During this period, he painted abstracts in somber colors and illustrated the writings of Cervantes, Rilke and Hemingway.
In 1952, he settled in France. In the 1960s, he abandoned abstract painting and began to produce works based on direct observation of nature. In addition to portraits, many of his paintings depict his home surroundings. He also wrote scholarly articles about European art, especially Poussin and Ingre, and curated a number of exhibitions on the subject.
