Kadishman is an Israeli sculptor and painter. From 1947 to 1950 he studied with the Israeli sculptor Moshe Sternschuss at the Avni Institute in Tel Aviv, and in 1954 with the Israeli sculptor Rudi Lehmann in Jerusalem. In 1959 he moved to London, where he remained until 1972; he had his first one-man show there in 1965 at the Grosvenor Gallery. His sculptures of the 1960s were Minimalist in style and so designed as to appear to defy gravity. This was achieved either through careful balance and construction, as in Suspense (1966), or by using glass and metal so that the metal appeared unsupported, as in Segments (1968). The glass allowed the environment to be part of the work.   In his youth, between 1950 and 1953, Kadishman worked as a shepherd on a Kibbutz. This experience with nature, sheep and shepherding had a significant impact on his later artistic work and career. The first major appearance of sheep in his work was in the 1978 Venice Biennale, where Kadishman presented a flock of colored live sheep as living art. In 1995, he began painting portraits of sheep, by the hundreds, and even thousands, each one different from the next. These instantly-recognizable sheep portraits soon became his artistic "trademark".   Israel 'Suspense', 1966, Israel Museum, Jerusalem 'The Family Plaza', The International School for Holocaust Studies, Jerusalem 'Akedat Issac', Tel Aviv Art Museum, Tel Aviv 'Birth', 1989, The Open Museum of Israeli Art, Galilee 'Tension', 1960   International   United States New York 'Suspended', 1977, Storm King Art Center, Mountainville 'Eight Positive Trees', 1977, Storm King Art Center, Mountainville Oklahoma 'The Sacrifice of Isaac', 1985, Fred Jones Jr. Museum of Art, Norman 'Negative Tree', 2001, Philbrook Museum of Art, Tulsa Pennsylvania 'Three Discs', 1967, Susquehanna University, Selinsgrove   Texas 'Segments', 1968, Nasher Sculpture Center, Dallas 'The Forest', 1970, Nasher Sculpture Center, Dallas 'Om', 1969, University of Houston, Houston Canada 'Three Discs', 1967, High Park, Toronto Costa Rica   MADC Museo de Arte y Diseño Contemporáneo, San José   Germany 'Falling Leaves',,Jewish Museum, Berlin 'Pieta', Dominikanerkloste, Braunschweig 'Negative Trees', 1974, Wedau Sports Park, Duisberg   Israel 'Suspense', 1966, Israel Museum, Jerusalem 'The Family Plaza', The International School for Holocaust Studies, Jerusalem 'Akedat Issac', Tel Aviv Art Museum, Tel Aviv 'Birth', 1989, The Open Museum of Israeli Art, Galilee 'Tension', 1960   Japan 'Prometheus', 1986-87, Hara Museum of Contemporary Art, Tokyo   United Kingdom   Tate Britain, London (England)   Other Work 'Horse' 'Motherland' 'Child and Horse' 'Kissing Birds' 'Homage to Young Couples' 'Homage to Barnett Newman' 'The Flock' 'Cracked Earth'     Please do not hesitate to contact us for any further information Tel 972-3-5244110 urban972@gmail.com       Worldwide shipping   Standard Delivery - EMS International (Between 3 and 7 days)   Local ShipmentItems can be shipped for NIS 88.00   Local PickupGeneral items can be picked-up from our Tel-Aviv offices on 72 Ben Ehuda St., Tel Aviv 63433, Israel for a handling fee of NIS 40.00.Combined Shipping DiscountsEach item in a combined sipping can be shipped for 50% of the stated shipping price PLEASE NOTE: Insurance is optional.
