| Claudia: I inherited two block prints done by a young Jewish-American
artist who emigrated to Israel in the late 1960s or 1970s and was killed in service after
he joined the Israeli army. I cannot fully read his signature, the name David
is clear and the last name begins with an "E" and may well be Erez.
He has a strongly left-slanted handwriting. There was a retrospective of his work in a
SoHo gallery. The color landscape is titled "Land Scape" 1973 and bears the
proof "E/A." On the back it has a label of "Media Galleries Limited
3172." The black and white print is titled "Jerusalem" with a proof of
"3/3 E/A." On the back it has a label of "Media Galleries Limited
3232." There is also writing in Hebrew that I cannot read. Could you please tell me
if you know the artist's name and if you can sell these two prints for me? Thank you. |
