Israeli born photorealistic painter Yigal Ozeri is known for his large-scale, airy portraits of young women in serene, dream-like landscapes. Painted with thousands of tiny brushstrokes, Ozeri’s impeccable technique and aluring subject matter generate an idyllic milieu that blurs the lines between fantasy and reality. Tinting feminine beauty with solar flares, dreamy light and contrasting colour tones, Ozeri’s grandiose paintings breathe sensuality into fleeting moments between female and nature.

Ozeri has exhibited extensively in solo and group exhibitions worldwide. His work appeared on the cover Photorealism in the Digital Age published in 2013, and was included in 50 years of Hyperrealistic Paintings, a traveling exhibition that began in the Museum Thyssen-Bornemisza in Madrid and moved to the Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery and the Museo de Bellas Artes in Bilbao. His work makes up part of the permanent collections of the Whitney Mseum of American Art, the McNay Art Museum in San Antonio, the Jewish Museum in New York, the New York Public Library, The Israel Museum in Jerusalem, the Tel Aviv Museum of Art and the Albertina in Vienna, among others. He is currently based in New York.
