Ofer Lellouche (1947) - Reclining Figure

After Kahn and Cividalli I present another Israeli artist, of the highest stature: Ofer Lellouche. He had two great guides: one of the soul (Mallarmé) and one (contemporary) of the hands: none other than César Baldaccini. The period I most favor is the 1980s, when he focuses on landscapes and the human figure. One of these works, similar to the one I propose here, was exhibited in 1987 at the São Paulo Biennial. The present, a delightful miniature of those great works, is an oil on panel of exquisitely refined craftsmanship from a prestigious Israeli auction whose rear photos you report. For the ultra-refined!
