Contemporary Israeli Art

A NEW website – a NEW concept

At the Zinger Gallery we have specially selected a unique collection of original works by contemporary Israeli artists. While the works reflect a diversity of style and theme, they are unified by the artists “freedom of expression”.  Not confined by the necessities of realistic representation, these artists express content and emotion in shapes, colors and vibrations.  Abstract art in all its forms, surrealism, “avant-garde”, street art, graffiti art, and so on –

All are to be found here. 

“To begin; let himself be transported by emotion – not by understanding” Antoni Tapies

What should we see ? “Everything and nothing!” Joan Mitchell

These works leave you free to develop your own individual interpretation of the art.  Your emotional response and understanding are part of the dynamic interaction with the work.

The artists we present have all derived their inspiration from the spiritual fruits of the Land of Israel, where creativity is born in the heightened turmoil of the clash of cultures – both modern and ancient.  Their images are at once personal and universal. 

"Contemporary Israeli Art, in particular, is increasingly recognized in the art world", says Smadar Sheffi, art critic for the newspaper Ha'aretz, "You see it in international exhibitions: The talent is really there! And real efforts have been made since the early 90s to export Israeli art. " 

“A picture only lives through the person who observes it” Pablo Picasso. So enjoy ! Through this site, get to know the artists of Israel, learn to love them before installing their works at home or in your office ... anywhere !

Because "Art washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life." Pablo Picasso
