Shlomo Katz Limited Edition Lithograph on Paper:"Hagada I"
Artist: Shlomo Katz
Title: Hagada I
Edition Size: 350
Medium: Lithograph on Paper
Image Dimensions: 24.5" x 19.25"
About the Art: Born just before the turmoil of the Second World War in Lodz, Poland, Shlomo Katz immigrated to Israel in 1945. He was educated in Kibbutz Mishmar Ha'emek and studied art at the Ecole de Beaux Arts in Paris. While numerous exhibitions in the U.S. and Canada in the early seventies introduced his work of different periods, Shlomo developed an original technique of oil painting on a gilded metal surface. The result recalls medieval icons on the one hand, and oriental miniatures on the other. However these ancient resources combine to form a totally modern image with a light humorous touch and a noble character. It took a lot of experimenting to translate these images into the graphic art form. The different metallic inks of the golden tones and the importance of total registration presented just a part of the challenge and Katz' serigraphs became the ultimate in modern printmaking. Following the commission by the Falcon Foundation of 9 large paintings for the U.S. Air Force Academy Cadet Chapel, Katz was invited to show his work around the world. He passed away in 1992 after returning from one of his shows in Japan.
