Batkin.” F Batkin, who passed away a year ago aged 101, was a life-long New Yorker, who, along with his wife Selma, was passionate about documenting the history of the Fine Arts in the State of Israel. This pursuit began in the 1950’s with twice-yearly visits to Israel where the Batkins formed deep and long- standing friendships with a great many of the dozens of artists represented in their collection. Developing such a collection was Batkin’s way of demonstrating his commitment to the nascent and growing State of Israel and its community of artists. In addition to serving with distinction on the board of many Israeli cultural organizations, collecting provided Batkin with the means of becoming deeply involved with the development of the State of Israel. His regular visits afforded him the opportunity to provide direct patronage and close personal contact with his favored artists. The extensive range of works collected by Batkin provides a highly personal choice and the offerings in this catalogue present a selective survey of artists and artistic styles that have emerged over almost a century of Israel’s growth. More broadly, Batkin sought to acquire artwork from each and every Israeli artist of note - even if he was not entirely enthusiastic about the artist’s particular style. Included in his collection are works from every juncture in the timeline of Israel’s art history - from the early 1920’s to the close of the 20th-century. A great many of the artists represented in the collection have experienced national fame, indeed many are internationally celebrated, such as Yaakov Agam, Avigdor Arikha, Mordecai Ardon, Marcel Janco, Reuven Rubin, etc. In 1985 the Jewish Museum of New York exhibited highlights of the Batkin collection in a Israeli Ambassador to UN Dan Gillerman rests on the lap of singular exhibition, which was accompanied by a detailed illustrated shipping magnate Sammy Ofer to the delight of Stanley Batkin and Tel Aviv Museum director/chief curator Mordechai Omer catalogue. Those paintings that were included in that exhibition are individually referenced in the present auction-catalogue. Tangentially, Batkin was also a talented photographer. He photographed some 200 Israeli artists (the collector becoming the artist) and thus became well acquainted with each individual artist on a level quite atypical from his collecting peers. In 2005 the Tel Aviv Museum of Art held an exhibition of Batkin’s photographs, curated by director Mordechai Omer. Many of these artist portraits are incorporated throughout the present auction-catalogue. We invite you to enjoy the Batkin Collection offered at Kestenbaum & Company, and appreciate one man’s personal mission in documenting the 20th century history of the Fine Arts in the State of Israel. DEK — INTRODUCTION — o better understand the historical context of the art that comprises the Batkin Collection, it is necessary to familiarize ourselves with the timeline of Israeli art history. The emergence of what has come to be known as “Israeli Art” dates to 1906 when Lithuanian- T Jewish artist and sculptor Boris Schatz established in the city of Jerusalem the Bezalel School of Art. Schatz sought to create an ‘Arts & Crafts’ movement inspired by Jewish Biblical symbolism within the context of modern Art Nouveau style. The first generation of great Israeli artists – many of who emigrated from Germany - expressed in their art their wonder at the experience of living in the Land of Israel. Works by artists including Mordecai Ardon (lot 23), Anna Ticho (lots 6 & 7), Leopold Krakauer (lot 31) and Jacob Steinhardt (lot 5) illustrate the spiritual encounter with the Land of Israel in various degrees of expressionistic styles. Additionally, while combining a romanticized view of the ancient landscape, this era saw the works of Ludwig Blum (lot 1) and Arieh Lubin (lot 32): Local landscapes and panoramic views, executed in an Orientalist motif. The art of Anna Ticho expresses an almost maternal relationship with the land, viz. the shading, delicate line and gentle use of watercolor. In 1920, the Hebrew Artists’ Association was formed, the members of which explored landscape through a modern and secular lens, creating what became to be known as Eretz Israel-style. This was especially popularized by pioneer artist Reuven Rubin (lot 8). The directness of Rubin’s work, whose technique, clearly influenced by Henri Rousseau, bordered on the naïve and utilized an approach associated with the Ecole de Paris. Moshe Castel (lot 10) shared this perspective, while Nahum Gutman (lot 19) took the genre one step farther and celebrated the local Arab aesthetic. Another approach to the arts in Israel was expressed by the Canaanite School, who rebelled against both traditional Jewish identity and current European artistic trends, favoring instead the animist dimensions of the ancient Canaanite world. They created a political fusion of art and nature, referencing primitive Assyria or Mesopotamia. This was part of a cultural philosophy and ideology of Israel, connecting with its archeological roots. An altogether different artistic pioneer was Yohanan Simon (lots 13 & 14) who expressed in his art an ecstatic enthusiasm for the lifestyle that was developed and subsequently flourished in the kibbutzim - the collective communities, mostly governed by the strictest rules of socialism. Simon himself was a member of such a kibbutz. Following the establishment of the State of Israel, the New Horizons (“Ofakim Hadashim”) evolved into a coherent artistic movement. It was formed by pioneering abstractionists who incorporated European avant-garde influences into their semi-abstract figure and landscape paintings. Members of this group include Avigdor Stematsky (lot 12), Yehezkel Streichman (lot 25), and Joseph Zaritzky (lot 24). A particularly individualistic member of this movement, Mordecai Ardon (lot 23), focused less on the present, but rather on the mystical aspects of past Jewish historiography. The 1950’s and 60’s saw many milestones in the development of Israel’s art narrative: The development of artists’ colonies in the northern part of the country, the establishment of Omanut L’Am (“Art for the People”), the Contemporary Art exhibition space added to the Tel Aviv Museum of Art in 1959, the founding of the Israel Museum as the national museum in 1965, and the endowment of public prizes such as the Dizengoff and Young Artist awards. Indeed art had become so respected by Israeli society that in 1968 the Kibbutz Art Gallery founded by the Kibbutz Movement in Tel Aviv, viewed artists as equal laborers on the kibbutzim, permitting them to maintain their craft full-time. The disbandment of the New Horizon group led to the rise of abstract expressionism as seen in the work of Avigdor Arikha (lot 26). This was soon countered by Pop Art – as American and British artistic influences reached Israel. The rise of Conceptual Art combined with a changing political atmosphere in the country, as the Six Day War of 1967 led to the Yom Kippur War of 1973, and politically-charged art and the art of protest became far more present. By the 1980’s there was a shift from the conceptual to the narrative image by such artists as Menashe Kadishman (lot 28), Ivan Schwebel (lot 29) and Moshe Gershuni (lot 27), the latter often using everyday materials in his work and whose career spanned several artistic styles over the decades. Finally, the pure “timeless” abstraction of kinetic artist Yaakov Agam (lot 22) rounds out this most abbreviated historical survey of modern art in Israel. The primary criteria that inspired the development of the Stanley Batkin Collection was the importance of each particular artist within the context of the history of Israeli art.

  • Analyzing the Barometer of Responses
    Chapter 6 Don’t Touch My Holocaust – Analyzing the Barometer of Responses Israeli Artists Challenge the Holocaust Taboo Tami Katz-Freiman The national museum in the eternal capital of the Jewish people should encourage many exhibitions attesting that we are indeed liberated from the traumas of the past. If the Israel Museum could get hold of the bones of Holocaust victims, they could invite kindergarten children to build castles. Perhaps the Israel Museum should also import hair from Auschwitz to hang on it postmodern works.1 This sarcastic and radical response, published in Maariv on January 19, 1997, by Holocaust survivor, Knesset member, and journalist Joseph Lapid, following the controversial exhibition of Israeli artist Ram Katzir at the Israel Museum, reflects the problematic nature, the hypersensitivity, and the intricacy of the current Holocaust discourse in Israel. In this essay, I delve into the pressing issues of this highly delicate discourse. I attempt to locate the very root of its problematic nature, wherefrom all taboos and paradoxes stem pertaining to the discourse of Holocaust representation in 188 contemporary Israeli art. The Zionist ethos is informed by two fundamental notions: Holocaust and Heroism and Negation of Exile that are crucial to the understanding of the problematic nature inherent in Holocaust representation in Israel. In the following paragraphs, I trace the implications of these two perceptions on Holocaust representation in art, and attempt to categorize and classify modes of Holocaust representation in contemporary Israeli art in light of, or in relation to, the public sensitivity toward the manipulative use of the Holocaust. In order to elucidate some basic concepts relating to the Israeli black hole, I examine some strategies employed by current Israeli artists who are communicating Auschwitz2 in their work.

    Avigdor Arikha Landscapes 20 January — 24 February 2018 Private View: Friday 19 January, 6-9pm Blain|Southern Potsdamer Straße 77–87 Avigdor Arikha, View from Rue de la Chaise, 2005 10785 Berlin Courtesy the Estate of Avigdor Arikha and Blain|Southern Blain|Southern presents Landscapes, a selection of landscape paintings and drawings by Avigdor Arikha (1929-2010), one of the great observational artists of the late twentieth century. The gallery now represents the Estate of Avigdor Arikha and Landscapes is the first exhibition of the artist’s work. The exhibition is on view in the Long Gallery, beginning a new programme of simultaneous exhibitions at the Berlin gallery. While Avigdor Arikha is highly regarded for his interiors, still lifes and portraits, most of which he painted in his Paris studio, he also spent long periods in Israel and New York, and he never failed to take his pencil or brush along with him. Spending summers in Israel, he painted the warm walls, arid hills and desert vegetation, and during his frequent trips to New York City, the city’s rhythmic, rising grids became a new view to stimulate his eye and hand. His adopted hometown of Paris was his most frequent subject, from iconic Haussmann cityscapes, to seemingly overlooked patches of the city. Wherever he landed his eye, he found a subject, or a structure, worthy of a picture. Landscapes allows viewers to travel with the artist, and to see places and perspectives that were important throughout the artist’s life. Window frames inspired the artist wherever he travelled. In View from Rue de la Chaise (2005), the warm glow of the interior window frames are contrasted with the cool burst of green from the tree beyond.

    Staring Back at the Sun: Video Art from Israel, 1970-2012 An Exhibition and Public Program Touring Internationally, 2016-2017 Roee Rosen, still from Confessions Coming Soon, 2007, video. 8:40 minutes. Video, possibly more than any other form of communication, has shaped the world in radical ways over the past half century. It has also changed contemporary art on a global scale. Its dual “life” as an agent of mass communication and an artistic medium is especially intertwined in Israel, where artists have been using video artistically in response to its use in mass media and to the harsh reality video mediates on a daily basis. The country’s relatively sudden exposure to commercial television in the 1990s coincided with the Palestinian uprising, or Intifada, and major shifts in internal politics. Artists responded to this in what can now be considered a “renaissance” of video art, with roots traced back to the ’70s. An examination of these pieces, many that have rarely been presented outside Israel, as well as recent, iconic works from the past two decades offers valuable lessons on how art and culture are shaped by larger forces. Staring Back at the Sun: Video Art from Israel, 1970-2012 traces the development of contemporary video practice in Israel and highlights work by artists who take an incisive, critical perspective towards the cultural and political landscape in Israel and beyond. Showcasing 35 works, this program includes documentation of early performances, films and videos, many of which have never been presented outside of Israel until now. Informed by the international 1 history of video art, the program surveys the development of the medium in Israel and explores how artists have employed technology and material to examine the unavoidable and messy overlap of art and politics.

    STEPHEN ONGPIN FINE ART AVIGDOR ARIKHA Rădăuți (Bukovina) 1929-2010 Paris Interior with Drawings Pastel on emery paper. Signed and dated Arikha Nov.88 in pencil at the lower centre edge. 505 x 300 mm. (19 7/8 x 11 3/4 in.) Provenance The estate of the artist Marlborough Fine Art, London. Exhibited New York, Marlborough Gallery Inc., Avigdor Arikha: twenty-five pastels, November 2007, no.3. Arguably one of the finest draughtsmen of the second half of the 20th century, Avigdor Arikha was born to German-speaking Jewish parents in Romania in 1929. The drawings he produced as a thirteen-year old boy while imprisoned in a Ukrainian labour camp brought him to the attention of the International Red Cross, who rescued him and sent him to a kibbutz in Palestine in 1944. After studying art at the Bezalel School of Arts and Crafts in Jerusalem, Arikha went to Paris in 1949, where he completed his training at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts. He eventually settled in Paris in 1954, studying philosophy at the Sorbonne and establishing lifelong and intimate friendships with Samuel Beckett and Alberto Giacometti. Arikha began his career as an abstract painter, but in 1965 abandoned painting completely, and spent the next eight years working on black and white drawings from life, as well as a series of monochromatic etchings. By the time he returned to painting in 1973, he had become a committed figurative painter, producing portraits of family and friends, interior scenes and still life subjects. Arikha’s drawings, invariably made from life, have always been much admired.

  • JERUZALÉM — Věčný Zdroj Umělecké Inspirace Jerusalem — Eternal Source of Artistic Inspiration 2
    JERUZALÉM — věčný zdroj umělecké inspirace Jerusalem — Eternal Source of Artistic Inspiration 2. česko-izraelské kolokvium / 2nd Czech-Israeli Colloquium Praha / Prague, 5 / 9 / 2017 Jerusalem’s Share in Building the New Prague Bianca Kühnel (Hebrew University of Jerusalem) In the lecture the part played by Jerusalem and its loca sancta buildings in the construction of the New Prague by Emperor Charles IV will be emphasized. The presentation is mainly based on two architectural monuments, the All Saints Chapel in the Royal Palace and the Wenceslas Chapel in the S. Vitus Cathedral, following the ways in which both echo essential Jerusalem traditions. The Return to Zion – Views of Jerusalem in Jewish Illuminated Manuscripts from Bohemia Sara Offenberg (Ben-Gurion University of the Negev, Beersheva) The notion of the return to Zion is manifested throughout Jewish history both in texts and images. The hopes for eschatological redemption and the rebuilding of the Temple are apparent in Jewish art from the late antique and up to the modern period. At times the hopes are expressed mostly in the saying of “Next year in Jerusalem” at the end of the Passover Haggadah, and the text is usually accompanied by an image of Jerusalem. The city is designed by the imagination of the patron and the illuminator of the manuscript and thus looks like a medieval or early modern European urban space. In this paper I shall examine this notion in some Hebrew illuminated manuscripts produced in Bohemia. Prague and Jerusalem – The Holy Sepulchre in Kryštof Harant‘s Travels (1598) Orit Ramon (Open University of Israel) Kryštof Harant, a Czech pilgrim who visited Jerusalem in 1598, published his travel log in Czech by 1608.
