Haran Kislev born 1985, Kibbutz Beeri, Israel
In 2016 Haran Kislev became a Bachelor of Multidisciplinary Art (B.F.A) magna cum laude from Shenkar College in Israel. He works predominately with thick layers of oil paint on canvas, in a style that vacillates between the figurative and the abstract, maintaining a tension between raw, muddy materials and intense grotesque colors.
Kislev looks onto the borderlands between Israel and the Gaza strip. It is an artificial boundary in a boiling landscape. He deals with life in the shadow of an armed struggle, concrete roadblocks near the border and the constant presence of armed forces.
He recently won the 'Young Artist Award' from the Ministry of Culture and Sport of the State of Israel.
