Yigal Ozeri Israeli, b. 1958

Overview
Yigal Ozeri is a leading hyperrealist painter best known for his large-scale cinematic portraits of distinctive young women in rich prodigious landscapes. With tinges of pre-Raphaelite aesthetics, Ozeri brings an ethereal and uninhibited sensibility to his paintings. His portraits denote art historical foundations in romanticism, while also offering contemporary notions of sensual femininity.

Ozeri’s work has been exhibited extensively around the world in seminal galleries and museums. His works are in the permanent collections of the Whitney Museum Of American Art, The Mcnay Art Museum in San Antonio, The Jewish Museum in New York, The New York Public Library, The Tel Aviv Museum Of Art, and The Albertina in Vienna, among others. His most recent retrospective was held at the Flint Institute of Arts.
