Reuven Rubin (Rubin Zelicovici) was a Romanian-born Israeli painter, celebrated as a pioneer in the Israeli art world. Born on November 13, 1893 in Galati, Romania. His paintings use radiant, earthy colors and simple techniques, reminiscent of the work of French-Russian artist Marc Chagall, to explore the biblical landscapes of his home in Israel and its folk history. He regularly drew the countryside and people who inhabited it, transforming his observations into more fantastical and dream-like scenes through his unique artistic vision. Rubin was one of the first Israeli artists to achieve international recognition. Reuven Rubin was born to a poor Romanian Jewish Hasidic family. He was the eighth of 13 children. In 1912, he left for Ottoman-ruled Palestine to study art at Bezalel Academy of Art and Design in Jerusalem. Finding himself at odds with the artistic views of the Academy's teachers, he left for Paris, France, in 1913 to pursue his studies at the École Nationale Supérieure des Beaux-Arts. At the outbreak of World War I, he was returned to Romania, where he spent the war years. In 1921, he traveled to the United States with his friend and fellow artist, Arthur Kolnik, with whom he had shared a studio in Chernivtsi. In New York City, the two met artist Alfred Stieglitz, who was instrumental in organizing their first American show at the Anderson Gallery. Following the exhibition, in 1922, they both returned to Europe. In 1923, Rubin emigrated to Mandate Palestine. In 1924, he was the first artist to hold a solo exhibition at the Tower of David in Jerusalem. That year he was elected chairman of the Association of Painters and Sculptors of Palestine. In Palestine, he became one of the founders of the new Eretz-Yisrael style. Recurring themes in his work were the biblical landscape, folklore and people, including Yemenite, Hasidic Jews and Arabs. Many of his paintings are sun-bathed depictions of Jerusalem and the Galilee. Rubin might have been influenced by the work of Henri Rousseau whose style combined with Eastern nuances, as well as with the neo-Byzantine art to which Rubin had been exposed in his native Romania. In accordance with his integrative style, he signed his works with his first name in Hebrew and his surname in Roman letters. Reuven Rubin met his wife, Esther, in 1928, aboard a passenger ship to Palestine on his return from a show in New York City. She was a Bronx girl who had won a trip to Palestine in a Young Judea competition. From the 1930s onwards, Rubin designed backdrops for Habima Theater, the Ohel Theater and other theaters. Reuven Rubin’s one-man show in 1932 launched the Tel Aviv Art Museum. In 1948, he became the first official Israeli diplomatic envoy (minister) to Romania. He served in this position until 1950. Reuven Rubin died on October 13, 1974 in Tel Aviv, Israel. His house became the "Rubin House" Museum where all his works are shown.  Education1912 Bezalel Academy of Arts and Design, Jerusalem1913-14 École des Beaux Arts, Paris and Académie Colarossi, Paris Awards and Prizes1926 Awarded the Lord Plumer Prize1945 Honorary Doctorate of Hebrew Letters, Jewish Institute of Religion, New York1964 Rubin received an "honorary award" of the Dizengoff Prize for Painting.1971 Awarded the "Artist of the year", University of Judaism, Los Angeles1973 he was awarded the Israel Prize, for painting. Museums and Public CollectionsMuseum of Modern Art, New York CityNational Gallery of Art, Washington D.C.Rubin Museum, Tel Aviv, IsraelTel Aviv Museum of Art, IsraelThe Israel Museum, JerusalemThe Jewish Museum, New York City Timeline1893Born: Galati, Romania1912Studied at the Bezalel Academy of Art and Design, Jerusalem, Israel1913–1914Studied at the École Nationale Supérieure des Beaux-Artsand and Academie Colarossi in Paris, France1916Returned to Romania where he spent the war years1921Traveled to the United States where he met Alfred Stieglitz, 1922Established his studio in Tel Aviv, Israel1923Emigrated to PalestineBegan designing scenery for theatres1924Appointed chairman of the Association of Painters and Sculptors of Palestine1948Became the first official Israeli diplomatic envoy to Romania1964Received the Dizengoff Prize1973Awarded the Israel Prize for life's work in art.1974Died: Tel Aviv, Israel Exhibitions2009"Selection of Rubin paintings from the Permanent collection", Rubin Museum, Tel Aviv, Israel (solo)2006–2007"Reuven Rubin's Early Years: 1914-23", The Israel Museum, Jerusalem, Israel (solo)2005Stern Gallery, Tel-Aviv, Israel1998Rubin: "Home Visit", Rubin Museum, Tel Aviv, Israel (solo)1994"Rubin paints for the Theater", Rubin Museum, Tel Aviv, Israel (solo)1993"Rubin: a self portrait", Rubin Museum, Tel Aviv, Israel (solo)1989"The early Rubin", Rubin Museum, Tel Aviv, Israel (solo)1988"Rubin: Jerusalem Landscapes", Rubin Museum, Tel Aviv, Israel (solo)1986"Rubin Portrays his Friends", Rubin Museum, Tel Aviv, Israel (solo)1984"Rubin's Tel Aviv", Rubin Museum, Tel Aviv, Israel (solo)1966–1967"Retrospective", Israel Museum, Jerusalem, Israel (solo)"Retrospective", Tel Aviv Museum, Israel (solo)Galerie Mott, Geneva, Switzerland (solo)Norton art Museum, Palm Beach, FL (solo)1962"Retrospective", Wildenstein Galleries, New York, NY (solo)Hatfield Gallery, Los Angeles, CA (solo)Rosequist Gallery, Tucson, AZ (solo)1953–1960Grace Borgenicht Gallery, New York, NY"Seven Painters from Israel", leading museums across the U.S.Hatfield Gallery, Los Angeles, CA (solo)1957O'Hana Gallery, London, UK (solo)1955"Retrospective", Tel Aviv Museum, Israel (solo)1952Venice Biennale, Venice, Italy1948–1950Stage designs for Habima and Ohel theaters in Tel Aviv1947"Retrospective", Tel Aviv Museum, Israel (solo)1940–1945Milch Gallery, New York, NYHatfield Galleries, Los Angeles, CAGumps Gallery, San Francisco, CA"Twentieth Century Portraits", Museum of Modern Art, New York, NYLillienfeld Gallery, New York, NY1942Bignou Gallery, New York, NY1936–1938Steimazky Gallery, Jerusalem, IsraelBach Gallery, Tel Aviv, IsraelArthur Tooth Gallery, London, UKBezalel, Jerusalem, Israel1933–1934Tel Aviv Museum, Tel Aviv, Israel (solo)1931Montross Gallery, New York, NYStage designs for Habima and Ohel theaters in Tel Aviv, Israel1930Arthur Tooth Gallery, London, UK (solo)1927Beit Chelouche, Tel Aviv, Israel (solo)Home of Sir Ronald Storrs, Jerusalem, Israel (solo)1926Marcel Bernheim Gallery, Paris, France (solo)1924The Citadel of David, Jerusalem, Israel (solo)Herzlia high school, Tel Aviv, Israel (solo)Regina Maria Gallery, Bucharest, Romania1922Rubin Bucharest studio, Bucharest, Romania1921Anderson Gallery, New York, NY (solo)               Thank you for looking and I hope you can see my other items too!                                              LOW STARTING PRICE AND NO RESERVE                      Dimension: Frame: 31” x 26-1/2” Lithograph: 14-1/4” x 22-1/2”             Some light/flash reflections are seen in our pictures however this lithograph is in a very good condition.  Payments made by PayPal, your item will be shipped within 1 day.
