In 1959 he moved to London, where he remained until 1972; he had his first one-man show there in 1965 at the Grosvenor Gallery. His sculptures of the 1960s were Minimalist in style and so designed as to appear to defy gravity. This was achieved either through careful balance and construction, as in Suspense (1966), or by using glass and metal so that the metal appeared unsupported, as in Segments (1968). The glass allowed the environment to be part of the work. In his youth, between 1950 and 1953, Kadishman worked as a shepherd on a Kibbutz. This experience with nature, sheep and shepherding had a significant impact on his later artistic work and career. The first major appearance of sheep in his work was in the 1978 Venice Biennale, where Kadishman presented a flock of colored live sheep as living art. In 1995, he began painting portraits of sheep (see picture on the right), by the hundreds, and even thousands, each one different from the next. These instantly-recognizable sheep portraits soon became his artistic "trademark".     Please do not hesitate to contact us for any further information   Tel 972-3-5244110 urbangallery972.com urban972@gmail.com       Worldwide Shipping   Standard Delivery - EMS International (Between 3 and 7 days) Local ShipmentItems can be shipped for NIS 88.00 (up to 20kg per item) Local PickupGeneral items can be picked-up from our Tel-Aviv offices on 72 Ben Yehuda St. Tel Aviv 63433, Israel, for a handling fee of NIS 40.00.Combined Shipping DiscountsEach item in a combined shipment can be sent for 50% of the stated shipping price.
