Israeli-born painter Yigal Ozeri returns to themes of American iconography in his new solo exhibition, 'Road Trip,' debuting October 22 at the Zemack Gallery in Tel Aviv. The body of work features large-scale paintings of open highways, vintage automobiles, gas stations, diners, motels, and women in denim, executed in Ozeri's signature photorealistic style. The exhibition is rooted in Ozeri's personal biography as an immigrant from Israel to New York, using these archetypal American backdrops to examine his own experience of seeking a new life in the 'land of unlimited possibilities.' Ozeri's work is represented in major global institutions, including the Whitney Museum of American Art, the Smithsonian American Art Museum, and the Tel Aviv Museum of Art. The exhibition opens with a celebratory reception on Thursday, October 22, at 7 p.m. and will run through November 28.
