Michael Gross, Israeli painter and sculptor, 1920-2004
Michael Gross was born in Tiberias and grew up in the nearby farming village of Migdal. In 1939, when Gross was living in Jerusalem, his father was murdered by the Arabs and the family home was destroyed. This event influenced Gross's artistic choices.
Gross's early paintings and sculptures were primarily figurative, using a model. He was influenced by Zeev Ben Zvi and Moshe Ziffer, with whom he studied during this period. In 1954, when he returned to Israel after studying sculpture at the École nationale supérieure des Beaux-Arts in Paris, Gross's style moved toward simplification of nature and layers of color.
In the 1960s and 1970s, influenced by American art, Gross's work became increasingly abstract and "minimalist," but continued to address figurative themes and the landscapes of his past, exploring contrasts between colors and textures. Gross died on November 4, 2004.
