Israel Broytman
Born in Moscow, 1939
Israel Broytman graduated from the Moscow Institute of Art in 1960. In 1966 he moved to St. Petersburg
(Russia's cultural capital) where he continued his artistic career. His early works
focussed on traditional Russian life.
In 1980 he moved to Canada, where his works became increasingly more metaphysical and
universal. Broytman's unique style was developed through his use of traditional techniques
and newer innovative concepts and subjects.
Initially his works were figurative and focussed on images of women. Later his works
focussed on portraits of everyday objects. His paintings express feelings and memories
from his past; stark and lonely objects are surrounded by life and warmth.
Israel Broytman's works can be found in the Russian State Museum in St. Petersburg,
Toronto Holocaust Museum, and in private and corporate collections in Russia, Canada, USA,
Italy, Israel, France, Hong Kong and Japan.
