The artist is one of Israel’s leading painters. Now this comprehensive study introduces his work to a wider public. Michele Vishny discusses those aspects of Ardon’s paintings that have universal and immediate appeal: their gemlike colors and technical brilliance and their great variety of mood, ranging from the playfully ironic to the mysterious and pensive, and the meaning of their richly individual iconography thus creating a coherent system of interpretation that deepens the viewer’s understanding and appreciation of the work of this major contemporary artist.
