COLLECTION 1
Ofra Friedland, born in Jaffa, Israel, in 1959, is considered one of today’s more significant contemporary
Israeli artists, creating in oils, murals, tapestry, ceramics and sculpture. After studies at the Ramat Gan
College of Art and the Avni Institute in Tel-Aviv, Ofra apprenticed to several of Israel’s leading artists, and
was first recognized for her oil paintings which took Biblical themes for inspiration.
Among her best known works in oil are the fifteen panel “Song of Ascent” series based on the Psalms
of King David; a five-panel representation of the Five Books on Moses; a mural of scenes of Jerusalem,
and other series based on traditional themes such as ‘The Seven Species’, ‘The Twelve Tribes’ and the
‘Seven Days of Creation.’ Some of these motifs have also been rendered as rug designs, stained glass,
ceramic and bronze sculpture, and frescoes.
Described as a “lyricist in color,” Ofra is a master of diverse artistic media and has been commissioned
to design complete environments such as synagogue designs that encompass a wide range - oil
paintings, rug and tapestry designs, stained glass windows, synagogue furniture, and building façades.
Her complete environments also appear in several hotels including the Dan Pearl and Olive Tree in
Jerusalem and the Hilton Tel-Aviv, among others, and in other commercial buildings in the United States
and Europe.
Friedland has been inspired by diverse aspects of the Jewish-Israeli experience, creating many series
springing from Biblical motifs as well as scenes from nature and Jewish life. Her art is based on an
integrated vision of the Jewish and Israeli experience and reflects her roots in Israel and the deeply-
planted Jewish roots of her family home. A prominent feature of her work is the unique and illuminating
light present only in Eretz Yisrael. From Jerusalem where she lives and works, she attempts to capture
that elusive light. O
