Ilana Raviv-Oppenheim (born 1945) is a multidisciplinary artist.[1] Her work spans a variety of media including painting, drawing, etching, tapestry, and ceramic sculpture.
Biography
She was born in Tel Aviv in 1945[1] to Itzhak and Fanya Oppenheim. The painter Moritz Daniel Oppenheim was her great-great-grand uncle. Ilana grew up in Israel.
From 1980 to 1990, she lived with her family in the art capital of the world, New York, in order to study, renew herself, and broaden her artistic vision. During her stay, from 1980 to 1984 she studied at the Art Students League of New York. Among her teachers were Roberto Delamonica, Bruce Dorfman, and the American master Knox Martin.[1]
Ilana Raviv has exhibited in various museums and galleries of Israel, the US, Europe, and the Far East. RecentlyШаблон:When Ilana has exhibited her works alongside the best known of artists, including Knox Martin, Rauschenberg, Larry Rivers, Rosenquist, Chuck Close, MarisolШаблон:Citation needed
Work
Influences
The great mother figure from Greek mythology is among the chief topics in her work, as are other characters from the Bible, from history, and from literature. Her works are built from a variety of flat designs, contrasts, and shapes, which create different versions and dimensions of reality.
Raviv describes her works as "a metaphor which creates and shapes an artificial life on canvas".
In 2008 she received the title of Tel Aviv–Jaffa "Woman of the Year", representing the arts.Шаблон:Citation needed
Her work is represented in private collections and in various museums and galleries around the world. A solo exhibition consisting of 50 pictures by Ilana was presented at the State Russian Museum in Saint Petersburg between October 2007 and January 2008, and another solo exhibition of 100 pictures was presented at the Moscow Museum of Modern Art.[1] In both museums, she was the first native Israeli to exhibit.Шаблон:Citation needed
Besides the Russian museum exhibits, there is a Holocaust-themed painting that has figured for many years in the permanent collection of the Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington DC. In this painting Ilana exposes the monstrous aspect of the topic more than she trains a direct view on its consequences. The painting shows the Ten Commandments consumed by flame, with an emphasis on "Thou shalt not murder." The struggle to survive is expressed only in the mixture of colors.
Her painting A Tabernacle of Peace – Homage to Zachariah" (acrylic on canvas, 2.12 meters by 10) opened Israel's 40th anniversary celebrations in New York at the world's largest sukkah. Later it was displayed for eight years in the main entrance hall of the Jerusalem International Convention Center.Шаблон:Citation needed
