About The artist - part 1
Yair Levy studied art in Holland, where he lived for six years, and came back to
Israel where the local rhythm of life, the local tensions, the wars, the light and the Mediterranean colorfulness - all show in his work।
His technique has undergone various changes throughout the years. New materials were added, creating unique juxtapositions. Unusually shaped gourds, round pieces of colored glass, and, in later stages, even an artificial eye, were all incorporated in his works. Yair took total artistic freedom pushing ceramic sculpture to absolutely new grounds.
In the 1980's, he exhibited a samurai figure, wounded in battle, lifting his hand to his wounded eye – a prophetic sculpture: Yair was hit by a hand grenade in war and lost an eye. Yair managed to overcome this serious injury and continues working three-dimensionally. It took a lot of inner strength to get back to the routine of an artist's discipline; the full artistic expression, and rich and colorful vividness typical of his practice.
