Shraga Landesman is a one of a kind Israeli artist. Living and creating his pieces of art in his Haifa studio, he's Israeli born (in 1954) and bred, and Israel and the Bible are his main sources of inspiration. With care and love for a time long gone, he incorporates the history of the land and the biblical symbols into his Judaic art. Touching on the ancient culture of the region, he lovingly decodes the symbols and magical objects of the biblical culture that were left behind in the holy land of Israel.
Beginning with small scale sculptures themed on the tribal art of the biblical era, Shraga eventually found his pace and his niche in Judaica art and design, making cultural artifacts of his own traditions that were inspired by the tribal ancient art dear to his heart.
Studying painting and sculpture art in the colleges Oranim and Tel Hai, he later expanded his skill set by studying under a silversmith, making jewelry from this new medium, perfecting his small scale sculpture in the form of jewelry.
Shraga Landesman's art is featured and exhibited in museums and art galleries worldwide as well as in Israel, and his artistic eye has been recognized in the form of various awards over the years since the 1980s. Attaining the Bat Yam Museum first prize in photography in 1981, featuring one of his paintings in the Haifa Museum in
1985, and the Rudi Ritter Jewelry Gallery in Switzerland in 1993 showcased some of his pieces. The International Judaica Competition in Jerusalem also awarded him with an honorable mention for his unique Torah crown design, a design which was then exhibited in the Spertus Institute in Chicago in 2000.
