For further information about this lot please log on to our eBay store: www.stores.ebay.com/fineartbay or to our Gallery website: www.binethgallery.com Mordecai Ardon was born in 1896 in the small Polish village of Tuchow. After World War First he left for Paris and like many Russian and Polish artists only got as far as Berlin where he enrolled to a preparatory Bauhaus class. He found a small room in the house of the older Paul Klee, who became a friend to young Ardon. When the Nazis came to power in 1933, he immigrated to Israel. In leaving Europe he not only lost the stimulating human contacts but also the inspiring museums and exhibitions. In addition, the landscape was different, the sky had a blinding light and the sunsets were overwhelmingly colorful. Creation is a beautiful and important portfolio by Ardon including 10 lithographs that were printed by Mourlot Paris and published by us, Bineth Gallery. The entire series of prints was inspired by the Kabalistic conception of the Hebrew Alphabet. Each work depicts a different letter in the Alphabet. Again, Ardon's rich and imaginary world is demonstrated by abstract images and vibrant colors. * * * An official CERTIFICATE OF AUTHENTICITY issued by Bineth Gallery (Tel Aviv, Israel) will be provided with this work upon request * * * Starting bid of this lot is $4500 Auction House Bineth Gallery15 Frishman st.Tel-Aviv Israel 63578972-3-5238910Terms & ConditionsBy bidding in this auction, online, the purchaser or bidder agrees to be bound by these Terms and Conditions of Sale.
