About the Item

This painting is signed by the artist “J. Gurvich” at the lower right corner. It was painted in 1956. Provenance: Gifted directly by the artist to a member of Kibbutz Ramot Menashe, circa 1956. Remained in the same family collection In the Early 1950's, after the death of Joaquín Torres García, Jose Gurvich traveled through Europe and Israel. He settled for a brief period in Kibbutz Ramot Menashe where his sister Myriam and his parents lived. While living in the Kibbutz he worked as a shepherd and was asked to paint a mural for the public dining room. It was there that he came to grips with his Jewish ancestry and took part in what was the birth of the Jewish State. Living at the kibbutz he painted the world and the reality which surrounded him; Israeli pastoral and religious traditions and Yiddish folklore. Condition: Good condition

Judaica Modernist Oil Painting Know Thyself Israeli Kibbutz Pioneer, Prophet
By Mortimer Borne
Located in Surfside, FL
Mortimer Borne, Printmaker, painter, sculptor, and educator was born in Rypin, Poland in 1902 and emigrated to the US in 1916. He studied at the National Academy of Design, The Art Students League, The Beaux-Arts Institute of Design, and with Charles Webster Hawthorne, founder of the Cape Cod School of Art in Provincetown. Painted in a thick impasto style similar in technique to Samuel Rothbort and David Burliuk. Borne himself taught at The New School for Social Research in New York City from 1945-1967. From the 1920s through the 40s he was a prolific producer of New York City cityscapes and genre scenes. In later decades, he adopted a more modernist style apparently influenced by Picasso, producing color drypoints of abstracted figures. His works were widely exhibited in museums in the U.S. and abroad from 1931 and later, including the Art Institute of Chicago, the American Institute of Graphic Arts, Museum of Modern Art, Metropolitan Museum of Art, Corcoran Gallery of Art, New York Public Library, Carnegie Institute, and Royal Society of Painters, Etchers and Engravers in London. He taught at The New School for Social Research in New York City from 1945-1967, and at the Tappan Zee...
