Raphael Perez: A Naive Painter of Urban Landscapes

Raphael Perez is an Israeli artist who specializes in naive paintings of urban landscapes. His works depict the cities he loves, such as Tel Aviv, Jerusalem, Paris, and New York, in a colorful and whimsical way. He creates an idealized vision of reality, where the streets are wide and clean, the trees and flowers are abundant, and the people are happy and diverse.

Naive art is a term that describes a style of painting that does not follow the rules of perspective, proportion, or realism. Naive artists paint from their imagination, using simple shapes, bright colors, and expressive details. They often portray scenes from their everyday life, their memories, or their dreams.

Perez’s naive style is characterized by a lack of perspective, a simplified representation of forms, and a vibrant use of colors. He paints with acrylics on large canvases, using brushes to create texture and contrast. He often includes himself in his paintings, as a painter who observes and captures the scene in front of him. He also incorporates motifs such as kites, balloons, flags, couples, families, and animals to convey a sense of joy and harmony.

Perez’s paintings are influenced by his personal life and experiences. He was born in 1965 in Jerusalem to a religious family. He studied art at the Beer Sheva at schoul of visual art , Born in Jerusalem and later moved to Tel Aviv,

He came out as gay in his twenties and became an active member of the LGBT community. He met his partner in 1993 and they have been together ever since. Perez’s paintings celebrate his identity as a gay man and his love for his partner. He also depicts the diversity and tolerance of Tel Aviv, which is known as one of the most gay-friendly cities in the world.

Perez’s paintings have been exhibited in Israel and abroad, and have received positive reviews from critics and audiences alike. His works are considered to be original and refreshing, as they offer a different perspective on urban life. His paintings are not meant to be realistic or accurate, but rather to evoke a feeling of nostalgia, fantasy, and optimism. Perez invites the viewers to join him in his journey of exploring and enjoying the beauty of the cities.

Raphael perez Hebrew name rafi peretz was born into a traditional family and grew up in Jerusalem.

Family biography Raphael Perez father, Shimon Perez, worked as a receptionist at Hadassah Ein Kerem Hospital in Jerusalem. His great love was art, but as a breadwinner, he could not fulfill his dream of becoming an artist. Raphael’s mother, Alice Aliza Perez, worked as an assistant to a kindergarten teacher and later took care of a baby at home. She loved gardening and nature, and together with her husband, created a magnificent garden.

Raphael has several siblings. His elder brother David Perez repented in his mid-twenties and brought many people back to repentance. His sister Hana Peretz raised eight children and worked in the field of education. His brother Avi (Abraham) Peretz studied Philosophy and Judaism in Israel before moving to the United States where he completed his master’s degree in education and became a conservative rabbi. His fourth brother is Asher Peretz, who is very fond of traveling and has been to magical places all over the world. Raphael is the fifth sibling and has a twin brother named Miki (Michael) Peretz, who is a talented industrial designer. The youngest sibling is Shlomit Peretz, who has been involved in the Bezeq telephone company for almost three decades.

Peretz). In the IDF, he served in the Artillery Corps. He worked for 15 years in education in therapeutic settings for children and taught art and movement.
Peretz is a graduate of the Center for Visual Arts in Be'er Sheva, where he studied from 1989-1992. He has been painting since 1989 and since 1999 earns a living only from selling art. Since 1995 he has lived and worked from his studio in Tel Aviv.
Between the ages of 17 and 32, he wrote about forty diaries, sketchbooks and artist books in which he wrote daily and described his thoughts, experiences and feelings and his struggle with his homosexual sexual orientations. He later adorned the diaries with illustrations and drawings. The diaries were presented in a solo exhibition at Camera Obscura and in a group exhibition at the Sommer Gallery.
In his work, starting in 1995, he dealt with relationships, initially with relationships between men and women, in which complex relationships between men and women can be seen. In addition to explicit paintings, he created series of flower paintings, as a metaphor for the relationship between a man and a woman.
At the age of 32 he came out of the closet and began to draw relationships between men. At first, the paintings express hesitation and imperfection, while Peretz does not reveal the faces of the cartoonists. After his first love for a man in 1999 and coming to terms with his sexual orientation, the paintings became peaceful and he presented the homosexual relationship in an ideal way. Peretz has created a series of naive paintings that deal with loving relationships between men and common daily activities in the home environment. Over the years he painted his mates.
