Ukrainian painter Michael Rozenvain attended art school in Kiev and later on continued his studies at the Lvov Academy of Applied Art. He immigrated to Israel in 1990 and has since had a number of one - man shows as well as participating in group exhibitions. At the same time, he has contributed large Plurals and decorative elements to public buildings as well as Monumental displays in hotels and libraries. On one's first encounter with the work of Michael Rozenvain, one's mind turns to the palimpsest of many generations past-that is, the parchment or tablet on which an earlier drawing or writing has been erased to make way for another.

Emanuel Mattini is an
Iranian-born,
American educated painter, strongly influenced by
music. His
figurative works are melodies performed in textured forms - brilliant in
color, exciting in design. His works metamorphose
music into art, art into human expression, human expression into the rhythm of life. The quiet play of sound, the expression of scale relating to the yin and yang of color and motion reflect in his life as well as his art. His art has a freshness of style and approach, a blend of the modern with the
ancient, reflecting an age of quality - quality of meaning and of image. These qualities were ingrained in Emanuel in his native Shiraz, Iran, the famed valley of
poets and philosophers, where he was born in 1966.

Israeli painter Sonia Drabkin is an emerging
surrealistic and romantic
fantasy artist. Sonia Drabkin’s art is heavily influenced by
Surrealism. As with artists of this style who preceded her, her sources lie in
Paris of the 1920s. Drabkin celebrates a vision of the world in which the imagination is set free. She aspires to express her ideas, experiences, and emotions in a
symbolic and
surreal manner. She creates paintings where reality is like a dream in search of the inner self’s authentic voice. Rising out of her works is the desire that wonder and magic not be lost from reality.

Dovrà imparare, lo so, che non tutti gli uomini sono giusti, che non tutti gli uomini sono sinceri.
Però gli insegni anche che per ogni delinquente, c’è un eroe;
che per ogni politico egoista c’è un leader scrupoloso....
Gli insegni che per ogni nemico c’è un amico,
e che vale molto più una moneta guadagnata con il lavoro che una moneta trovata.
Gli insegni a perdere, ma anche a saper godere della vittoria,
cerchi di tenerlo lontano dall’invidia, se ci riesce,
e gli insegni il segreto di una risata discreta.
Gli faccia imparare subito che i bulli sono i primi ad essere sconfitti....
Se può, gli trasmetta la meraviglia dei libri.... | He will have to learn, I know, that all men are not just, all men are not true,
but teach him also that for every scoundrel there is a hero;
that for every selfish politician, there is a dedicated leader.
Teach him that for every enemy there is a friend.
It will take time, I know, but teach him, if you can, that a dollar earned is of far more value than five found...
Teach him to learn to lose...and also to enjoy winning.
Steer him away from envy, if you can, teach
him the secret of quiet laughter.
Let him learn early that the bullies are the easiest to lick...
Teach him, if you can, the wonder of a book... |

Che hai, che abbiamo,
che ci accade?
Ahi il nostro
amoreé una corda dura
che ci lega ferendoci
e se vogliamo
uscire dalla nostra ferita,
separarci,
ci stringe un nuovo nodo e ci condanna
a dissanguarci e a bruciarci insieme.

With regard to his use of vibrant colors and the feature of blurred forms, his biography explains that his work is close to that of the “impressionists”, because “[he] does not paint objects, but reflections”.

colors and the black trims all fade together, and create an individual image for every spectator, no matter what culture or social position.

I was born in the Southern Romanian town of Craiova. In 1979, I interrupted my university studies in engineering to become a full-time painter. For five years I studied church painting and restoration that gave me the opportunity to learn and master all painting techniques from the ancient fresco to the contemporary oil and acrylic. The influence of the Byzantine style is noticeable in the suppleness of the personages. Since 1989, while in Hungary, I completely dedicated myself to surrealism. Moving to Canada meant real international recognition. I won various national and international awards and have been shown and celebrated in several art galleries. The prizes include first place at the "International Salon of Art" in Montreal, and at the national HMV "Music in Visual Art", Canada. My paintings have been featured in galleries and exhibitions in Romania, Hungary, Canada, the United States, Austria, France and Mexico.
