Jossef Krispel (b. 1974)

Jossef Krispel was born in 1974 in Vardon. His early works in print had a drawn-like affect, generated by using etching and sugar-lift. These works contained imagery extracted from the history of art. Since 2015, Krispel has been using screenprint in order to create color surfaces and models. His works can be found among the collections of the Israel Museum, Tel Aviv Museum of Art, Herzliya Museum of Contemporary Art, and others.
