Old Safed is in the north Israel – the city of kabbalists and artists. He is like a jew in an old fashioned frock-coat and with player in the ear. He sits on top of a mountain and looking down on our fuss with condescending understanding...

Two weeks of August">
I have been to Russia, visited a relative in Konoshsky area. It is North, where was exiled poet Joseph Brodsky. Years later he wrote: “In these sad edges all calculated for the winter”. For two weeks I never felt sad – I read a lot, watched a lot and painted a little. And I exceeded the plan by good thoughts …

Golan – the birthplace of giants">
Israel and Syria consider the Golan Heights as its territory. And the Torah calls this place the “Land of Bashan”. Here lived the giants led by the king Og. The king was lucky – he (only one of the all giants) was saved during the Flood on the roof of Noah’s ark. But he is no longer gave rise to progeny, that can lay claim to Golan …

Glamour for Channel One ">
The offer of the Channel One TV Russia was interesting: to make two “portraits” of actress Anastasia Zavorotnyuk, as elements of a television show scene. Urgent for 10 days in the Art Deco style…
When the program was broadcast, I could hardly find my works and I did not recognize
them in the light of red spotlights… And it serves me right – do not go to glamor!
By the way, the show “Nastya” was closed after several releases

Oleg Lerman">
Poet Oleg Lerman – author by almost a thousand verses and thirteen poems, winner of international poetry competitions. On his verses written over 60 songs… In his works philosophy coexists with phantasmagoria, drama with irony, lyric with mysticism.
I am glad that some verses of Oleg were inspired by my paintings. For the first
time, these verses are collected together. Sorry, they exist only in Russian…
Perhaps you want to translate into English?
