Samy D. is a Tel Aviv based ceramic artist. His studio is located in Tel Aviv's hip Neve Zedek neighborhood.〔Twinkling in Tel Aviv, Hannah Weitzer, ''The Jerusalem Post'', May 7, 2008〕〔What's New?, Rosalyn Harari & Irit Mathias, ''The Jerusalem Post'', 09-14-2001〕〔Neve Tzedek Revival, Haim Shapiro, ''The Jerusalem Post'', 11-22-2001〕〔Sabra Style: Made in Israel, Erica Chernofsky, ''The Jerusalem Post'', August 16, 2007, ()〕〔Samy D., Winter Shows, Home Accents Today, January 1, 2003〕 His works are well published in dominant design and fashion journals and are held at the homes and galleries of important art collectors around the world. Samy D.'s store in Shabazi st., Neve-Zedek, lead a significant change in the Israeli world of ceramic functional art: it is for the first time that a dominant studio continuously presents the works of an artist, bearing his individual signature and its dynamics along the years. This signature is characterized by innovative and humoresque lines interwoven with ever- classic fineness.〔''City Guide Tel Aviv,'' Lisa Goldman, Greenleaf Book, 2008, p. 162.〕 Samy D. had been selected by EL AL Israel Airlines to design the dishes for breakfast in its first class compartment. Along with his high-quality industrial series, Samy D. produces one-off creation as well – hand built, on a potter's wheel or using jigger – many of which are coated with 14 karat gold.〔 One series of pieces are etched with micrographic passages from the Book of Genesis, some in Hebrew, some from the Vulgate. The text begins in even swirls but becomes "twisted and warped," at the verse where man is created.〔()"Genesis ," Israeli Design Center website, 2008.〕 ==Shows, Exhibitions and prizes== 2009 *first prize of the ''Alix De Rothschild Crafts Awards'', an annual art prize given by the ''Alix de Rothschild Foundation'' in memory of Baroness Lavinia Anne Alix De Rothschild by a London-based jury to an Israel artist for exceptional work in any in glass, jewellery, ceramics, textiles, or metal.〔"Feats of Clay," Gil Goldfine, February 28, 2003, ''The Jerusalem Post''.〕〔"In the Frame," Angela Levine, February 18, 2000, ''The Jerusalem Post''.〕 *Imagination – Israeli Art Exhibition, Tel-Aviv, Israel *True Colors 2009 – 100 Identities – Shorashim Art Gallery, Tel-Aviv 2008 *Genesis – Periscope Gallery, Tel-Aviv, Israel〔 *SAMY D. – VeredArt Gallery, East Hampton, New York and museums. *The PMA Craft show – Philadelphia Museum of Art, Philadelphia, PA USA〔 *The 5th Biennale for Israeli Ceramic Art, Tel-Aviv, Israel, 2007〔 *SOFA – Chicago, IL - by the courtesy of AIDA *Imagination – Israeli Art Exhibition, Tel-Aviv, Israel *'Nisui Kelim #5' – Bikurei Haitim Center, Tel-Aviv, Israel 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Samy D.」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
