Guy Avital

Artist Guy Avital is primarily a painter, based in Tel-Aviv. He began his formal education at a foundation course of Chelsea College of Art & Design, London, later he joined Kunstakademie Dusseldorf as a guest student in the class of artist Albert Oehlen. In 2009 he graduated Bezalel Academy of Art & Design MFA program.
In 2015 he co-founded a private painting school in Tel-Aviv which aspire to introduce new and contemporary teaching approach to painting.

Avital’s multilayered paintings incorporate various techniques of integrating painting and collage. His visual language is of constant metamorphosis developed through series of works. Each series - in his ongoing experiment - is driven by a specific work process designed to bring forth a principle of fusing contrasting visual languages and dialects onto a single canvas. Avital’s experience of daily life with its concerns, fantasies, politics and philosophical questions is reflected through the meticulous aesthetic investigation, and translated into abstract thoughts of colour and shape. The themes in his work - gardens, interiors, landscapes and ruins, are inspired by both observation and the history of painting

Guy Avital exhibited in museums, public spaces and galleries in Israel and Europe. His work is held in Collections both in Israel and abroad.
