Eran Reshef was born in 1964 in Tel Aviv, where he still lives and works till today. Reshef studied his undergraduate and graduate degrees at the University of Brooklyn, New York. 
Eran Reshef paints in a figurative and realistic style. He mainly paints realistic, everyday objects charged with emotional contexts. Reshef only paints from direct observation and does not copy from photographs. Perspective is very important in his works and he creates in a slow matter in order to reach maximum accuracy. Reshef presented a solo exhibition at the Tel Aviv Museum of Art in 2011. Regarding his works Varda Steinlauf wrote: “Eran Reshef’s paintings ask the viewer to give them another look, a glance that goes beyond the technical achievement of the exact representation. They are charged with significance and ambivalence, and all the details that make up the painting - composition, texture, shape and color 
- appear as if through a magnifying glass, sharp and blunt in  
their presence.” 
  
In 2010 Reshef won the Haim Schiff Award for Figurative- 
Realistic Art. Reshef is one of the most sought-after  
contemporary artists in the Israeli art scene and his works can 
be found in leading collections in Israel and around the world, 
in places such as the Israel Museum, the Tel Aviv Museum, the 
IDB Collection and more. 
 
Helmet explanation  
Derived from the War Scroll, one of the Dead sea Scrolls. 
The triumph of the sons of light. The helmet surface, a scorched land, begins to heal and flourish. Butterflies, new lives, hover and flicker as drops of light. Above, the compass draws in the rebirth which flows in from all directions. A leaf, a face, one of many, bathed in light.
