Yariv Amitay - ''Holy Spirit'' 2021. Unique, clever, cynical, humorous and inspiring works by the historian who admires the art of the medieval period - Yariv Amitay  Ink on paper 20/30 cm signed Yariv Amitay (1975) lives and works in the underground in Kibbutz Givat Haim. An illustrator and cricotrist (”Deviations of Penguins” and ”The Life of Sarah”), he combines his two great loves - the written and illustrated history of the Middle Ages with the anarchist humor of Dudu Geva and the petrol culture of the 90s. The choice of these subjects is not accidental and began in his childhood in which he was intrigued by worlds of mystery, humor and legend. Through the work, the artist connects to distant periods in which he created worlds arising from these areas of interest without fear of internal or external criticism. In everyday life, Yariv works in the kibbutz archives
