dan lavie

In 1970 , after a long break, the artist began to draw and paint again. In 1976, he joined an etching studio on Mount Carmel. He participated , with colleague artists, in uninstructed nude drawing sessions. At that period he met Gitit, Sabina Mandel, Gil Bashan and other fellow artists.  Some joined him later in art activities. Among them: Esther Shulman, Lenka Cederbaum, Chava Gilon, Ilana Messinger, Shoshana Cohen, Chaim Demri, Martin sterlin, Varda Shamai, Israel Kantor, Tamar Dubrovsky.  At that time he purchased a small studio apartment  at a picturesque neighborhood near Carmel center.  In that studio (built by for a British refinery corporation in 1947) he carried out most of his art works during the late 70's and 80's. 

Most of the paintings from that period have been purchased or given as gifts. . Therefore  this folder shows only those few paintings that could be traced.  

During the 70's Dan had only one solo exhibition. It lasted 2 days. 46 paintings and drawings have been displayed.
