Yigal Ozeri: In Search of Beauty

Born from a fascination with the ephemeral, Yigal Ozeri’s paintings have captivated audiences for nearly two decades. This solo exhibition at Ethan Cohen Gallery presents a significant return to his celebrated ‘Women in Nature’ series, showcasing over twenty years of work. The artist masterfully blends figure and landscape, creating evocative scenes where women become almost spectral figures, dissolving within the elements – wind, water, light – revealing a profound meditation on our relationship with the natural world. Ozeri’s technique emphasizes transient moments, capturing the fleeting beauty of reflection and shadow. These paintings aren't simply portraits; they are explorations of vulnerability and resilience, inviting viewers to contemplate the constant flux between solidity and dissolution. The exhibition offers a rare opportunity to witness the evolution of Ozeri’s distinctive style and his ongoing pursuit of this elusive aesthetic. Free admission.
