The Life and Artistic Journey of Yitzhak Frenkel

Yitzhak Frenkel, also known as Isaac Frenkel or Alexandre Frenel, was an Israeli painter, sculptor, and teacher. Born in Odessa, Russian Empire, he studied under Aleksandra Ekster at the Fine Arts Academy in Odessa. His early years were marked by his studies in a yeshiva and themes from the Bible, Talmud, and Gemara. In 1919, he immigrated to Mandate Palestine.

Frenkel's career spanned several locations, including Portugal, South Africa, France, Odessa, and Israel, specifically Tel Aviv and Safed. During his time in Paris, he studied at the École des Beaux-Arts and the Académie de la Grande Chaumière under Antoine Bourdelle and Henri Matisse. He lived in Montparnasse and exhibited alongside artists such as Chaim Soutine and Jules Pascin.

  • Abstract and cubist paintings
  • Landscapes of Safed, Jerusalem, Tel Aviv, the Negev desert, and the Galilee
  • Frescos and stained glass windows
  • Sculptures, particularly bronze reliefs
