In his unique metal objects, David Gerstein blurs the boundaries between two-dimensional pictures and three-dimensional sculptures.

They are unique pieces that, with their cheerfulness and optimism, serve as small monuments to the individual in the modern urban space.

About David Gerstein
The Israeli artist David Gerstein (born in 1944 in Jerusalem) studied art in Paris and New York. He is one of the most important contemporary sculptors not only in his home country but is also an internationally established figure. Since 1972 he held numerous solo and group exhibitions internationally and is also working as a lecturer.
Fascinated by novelty as well as the unusual, he breaks with known norms and develops his very own signature style by combining the most diverse stylistic elements. Gerstein's works of art and three-dimensional metal objects are lively colourful fireworks of strong expressiveness that tell little stories – inspired by life. Unconventional and witty.
Term for an art object (sculpture, installation), which is produced in multiple copies in a limited and numbered edition according to the artist‘s will.
Artist's multiples have been called the most accessible and affordable art on the market.
A plastic work of sculptural art made of wood, stone, ivory, bronze or other metals.
While sculptures from wood, ivory or stone are made directly from the block of material, in bronze casting a working model is prepared at first. Usually, it is made of clay or other easily mouldable materials.
The prime time of sculpture after the Greek and Roman antiquity was the Renaissance. Impressionism gave a new impulse to the sculptural arts. Contemporary artists such as Jorg Immendorf, Andora, and Markus Lupertz also enriched sculptures with outstanding works.
