Abstract
- An essay is presented on the emergence of American Israeli art in the post World War II U.S. It offers a history of the first group exhibition of Israeli art "Seven Painters of Israel," with an aim to educate audiences about Israel, its achievements, and significance. It includes Israeli artists like Mordecai Ardon, Moshe Castel, and Yehoshua Kovarsky. It discusses the growing prowess of Israeli artists where they crafted a brand of cultural patronage to the apparent arts boom in the U.S.
