Ilan Baruch was born in Jerusalem in 1974, the son of a family that immigrated from Bukhare in the thirties of the 20th century and settled in the Geula neighborhood near Mea Shearim. At the age of 14, his father urged him to paint and develop his vocation as an artist. Baruch’s occupation is figurative painting. His subjects come to life in a repertoire that deals with place and culture such as the sabra bush, the cypress, the landscapes of Jerusalem and the surrounding area as well as the figure of the Arab and the figure of the Jewish settler. Baruch presented wide and comprehensive museum solo exhibitions, including “Conversation with Zabar” Tel Aviv Museum 2004, curated by Aya Luria “Sometimes we forget that the wasteland was not a general wasteland” Ramat Gan Museum 2013 curated by Meir Aharonson.
Helmet Explanation:
Red roses, full of sensuality and life force, give them to her lover, red as blood. An almost unbearable duality but gives meaning to life. And these are painted on a dusty and used helmet that came out of the “service” of an unknown soldier or soldiers I never met.
