MICHAL AVRECH
מיכל אברך
Welcome to my website.
My name is Michal Avrech. I am a painter based in Israel.
My artwork is featured both locally and in galleries around the world.
I am an award-winning artist and my paintings have been exhibited nationally as well as in the United States, Asia, and Europe.
In addition to painting, I work as an art therapist for at-risk youth and belong to the Israeli Professional Visual Art Association and the International Association of Art.
After earning a BA in Fine Arts and an MA in Art Therapy, I paint independently and have also been featured in galleries around the world.
My art exhibits distinctive landscapes that are both dynamic and universal, inviting viewers to reflect upon their inner and outer worlds.
I use fast, expressive brush strokes without careful planning, like a painting in the consciousness of a dream. My vivid abstractions are translated through an impressionistic and expressive lens using intense colors on large canvases.
In a 2021 critique, Davide Pugnana wrote about my art: “Avrech’s expressive research reveals a strong stylistic cohesion between the works, which makes Avrech's 'hand' immediately recognizable, like a figurative seal of undisputed value.”
I've exhibited in many local exhibitions, as well as in Europe, Asia, and the US.
