Estimate: $100 - 150 About The Artist: Tamar Getter, painter and fine arts teacher, born 1953, Tel Aviv. In the early 80's Tamar Getter's works were longitudinal and panoramic and had a Baroque dimension in the openness of their composition. Lives in Tel Aviv. Tamar Getter studied with Raffi Lavie in 1971-1972, and soon after began to exhibit her works and gain recognition as one of the promising young Israeli artists. Her subjects were mythical, such as the myth of Tel Hai. She worked in mixed media (e.g., photography and drawing) and adopted various perceptions of space in one work. This collaged approach, and the use of different, alien components to deal with ”heroic” subjects distinguishes her art.
