Elisha Ben Yitzhak

Elisha Ben Yitzhak was born in Israel in 1943. He studied art at the Bezalel Art Academy in Jerusalem and at the Avni Art Institute in Tel Aviv under the guidance of master artists. Elisha moved to Milwaukee, Wisconsin USA, in 1985. His paintings have been exhibited in museums, galleries, art festivals and private art exhibits in numerous countries around the world, including the famed Tate Gallery in London and they appeared in numerous publications and electronic media. Elisha exhibited his paintings at the 2009 Florence Biennale. In April 2010 Elisha’s paintings will exhibit at the Southern Nevada Museum of Fine Art as part of the 2010 International Contemporary Art Masters Publication and in September 2010 at the Broadway Gallery in New York.

Leon Harari, an art critic in Israel, wrote 'Elisha's pictures have a unique and independent style of their own with so much rhythm. Most of his images combine both figurative and surrealistic elements. The colors in his paintings have an impact similar to the effect of pastels in the work of great impressionists. Elisha expresses his feelings, emotions and personal experiences through most astonishing paintings, which are revered around the world and considered extraordinary.'
