David Gerstein 43z3b
David Gerstein is an established, award-winning Israeli painter, sculptor and designer. Gerstein grew international reputation during his 50 years long artistic career and his works are highly respected. His works offer us the vision of a poetic and joyful world around nature, sport, city life, all in a whirlwind of colors.
Gerstein began his career as a figurative painter and was recipient of the Israel Museum Prize for illustration. At the end of the 1970s he extended the limits of two-dimensional painting in the three-dimensional structure, free standing in space, without the traditional square frame. That led him to work in sculpture, in the beginning mostly in wood, and soon after that he was creating his personal pop art style, which he defined as second-generation pop-art. Gerstein was the pioneer in the use of laser cutting in art and multi-layered cutout steel wall-sculptures.
Gerstein was simultaneously ionate about public sculptures, and he created in public squares and plazas more than 40 sculptures just in Israel, and many more large-scale outdoor sculptures in England, , Sweden, Italy, China, South Korea, and other countries.
His work has been exhibited in museums since 1987. He received Taiwan's Artistic Creation Award in 2016. Lance Armstrong bought one of his bicycle rider sculptures, and Stephen King mentioned him in one of his books. "Momentum," his outdoor sculpture, is Singapore's tallest public sculpture.
David Gerstein was born in 1944 in Jerusalem, where he graduated at the Bezalel Academy, Jerusalem. After that he studied at the Ecole Supérieure des Beaux Arts, Paris; Arts Students League, New York; and Postgraduate studies at St. Martin’s School of Art, London.
