Biography:  Born in Tel Aviv in 1932, Kadishman began his art career early, studying with Israeli sculptor Moshe Sternschuss at the Avni Institute of Art and Design in 1947. In the early 1950s, he worked for several years as a shepherd on a kibbutz on the northern border with Lebanon and Syria. His time spent among the herds had a lasting impact on him, and guided his artistic vision many years later. His featured piece at the 1978 Venice Biennale was a flock of painted sheep that he presented as living art. But it wasn’t until 1995 that Kadishman began painting the heads of sheep, typically with long, drooping ears and highly emotive eyes. Kadishman’s sheep were sometimes white, but just as often were blue, red, yellow, or combinations of colors. Kadishman’s woolly subjects launched him to national and international fame, with his work appearing everywhere from the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Museum of Modern Art in New York, to London’s renowned Tate Gallery and the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden in Washington D.C.
