Reuven Rubin1893 1974
Rubin was born as ''Reuven Zelicovici'' in
Galati, and studied art in Paris. In 1912 he
immigrated to Ottoman Empire-ruled Palestine, and
attempted to study Bezalel Academy of Art and
Design He found himself, however, at odds with
the artistic views of the academy's teachers and
returned to Paris and then to Romania, where he
lived between 1916-1919 Between 1920 and 1922 he
lived in New York City. There, he met Alfred
Stieglitz who supported him and helped him
present his first one-man show at Anderson
Gallery in 1920. By 1922, Rubin returned to
Palestine, attempting to create a new, original,
'Land of IsraelEretzIsraeli'' style. Recurring
themes in his work were the Palestinian/Israeli
landscape, its folklore and population. Rubin was
heavily by the work Henri Rousseau and sought
to fuse Rousseau's style with Middle East
nuances. In accordance with his integrative
style, he signed his works with his first name in
Hebrew language and his surname in Roman letters.
