Vilnius, Lithuania, 1947 –
Lithuanian-born, Israeli artist, Malka Tsentsiper´s work generally depicts
a wide array of interesting URBAN scenes and ABSTRACTS.
This interesting artist was trained in Mathematics in Technion, Haifa (1966
– 1969), and Musicology at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem (1970 –
1973). Over the last many years, she has also emphasized her Art studies: first
at public courses in the Israeli Museum and at the Center of Arts in Jerusalem
followed by studies and practices at the private studios of several known Israeli
artists (Morin Fain, Eliyahu Nijago, Pesach Palit, Ambrosio Cohen, Koby Regev
and Shulamit Volk).
In sculpture the leading theme of her art are grotesque Jewish characters;
mainly those that continue to live in the books of Yiddish writers, especially
Shalom Aleichem. Malka Tsentsiper works mainly in clay, although some sculptures
are also cast in bronze.
