Patricia Govezensky
Patricia Govezensky was born
in Tel Aviv in 1961 and was raised in Jaffa, a picturesque quarter known
for being the site of the oldest port in the world.
Patricia was educated and
raised in Israel where she studied art. At a young age, she enrolled in
courses sponsored by the Tel Aviv Museum where she mastered such arts as
lithography, engraving, photography and sculpture. She graduated with
distinction in her art studies at the Avni Institute and the Art Academy
at Ramat Hasharon. These two institutes are of the most highly regarded
and well-known art academies in Israel.

Patricia, a sensitive artist, brings to her
canvas the immortal effeminate woman. Combining her tender touch and
simplicity with magic moments of beauty in delicate domain. She invites
us to share the public intimacy of an informal French Cafe and the
euphoric mystery of a woman’s room. The images, which she presents, are
anonymous and therefore transcend all specific consideration of time or
place, which places her work in the universal setting and justifies her
worldwide success. |
Patricia On Patricia
"For me painting is a means through which I find expression of life's
joy and fulfillment, and I believe art, more than merely being a means
of expression itself, also serves as a medium to help us to make peace
with our lives through positive and enthusiastic sentiments and regard
for the brighter aspects of our existence, escaping form protest,
cynicism and selfishness."
