Victor Ostrovsky, 1949

Born in Canada, Victor moved to Israel at the age of five. His inclination for the arts was apparent from a very early age. The well known Israeli painter, Giladi, lived on the same street and would often set up his easel outdoors to paint. Victor would watch, spellbound, on his way to and from school as Giladi created wonderful images on the blank canvas. Eventually, the artist presented Victor with his own box of oil paints and took the time to guide him into a world where expressions come through images and color, handing the child a gift that would soon become a passion.

Claudio Perina

Claudio Perina è un pittore italiano, nato in Veneto e che ha effettuato gli studi artistici a Verona. Espone un po’ ovunque in Europa e conta numerosi collezionisti nel mondo. Le sue tele, dai colori caldi e dolci, schierano su piani decrescenti , villa indolenti, case illanguidite, in atmosfere vaporose di fine estate. I rossi, i gialli, gli aranci, uniti alla dolcezza dei verdi bronzo, abbrustoliti di sole, illuminati di bianchi crudi, si ordinano secondo un disegno molto preciso, raffinato, elegante, attento al particolare, ma da dove particolare è assente.
