Raphael Perez : un peintre naïf de paysages urbains

Raphael Perez est un artiste israélien spécialisé dans les peintures naïves de paysages urbains. Ses œuvres dépeignent les villes qu'il aime, telles que Tel-Aviv, Jérusalem, Paris et New York, de manière colorée et fantaisiste. Il crée une vision idéalisée de la réalité, où les rues sont larges et propres, les arbres et les fleurs sont abondants et les gens sont heureux et diversifiés.

L'art naïf est un terme qui décrit un style de peinture qui ne suit pas les règles de la perspective, de la proportion ou du réalisme. Les artistes naïfs peignent à partir de leur imagination, en utilisant des formes simples, des couleurs vives et des détails expressifs. Ils mettent souvent en scène des scènes de leur vie quotidienne, de leurs souvenirs ou de leurs rêves.

Le style naïf de Perez se caractérise par un manque de perspective, une représentation simplifiée des formes et une utilisation vibrante des couleurs. Il peint à l'acrylique sur de grandes toiles, utilisant des pinceaux pour créer de la texture et du contraste. Il s'inclut souvent dans ses peintures, comme un peintre qui observe et capture la scène devant lui. Il incorpore également des motifs tels que des cerfs-volants, des ballons, des drapeaux, des couples, des familles et des animaux pour transmettre un sentiment de joie et d'harmonie.

Les peintures de Perez sont influencées par sa vie personnelle et ses expériences. Il est né en 1965 à Jérusalem dans une famille religieuse. Il a étudié l'art à la Beer Sheva à l'école d'art visuel, né à Jérusalem et a ensuite déménagé à Tel Aviv,

Il est devenu gay dans la vingtaine et est devenu un membre actif de la communauté LGBT. Il a rencontré sa compagne en 1993 et ils sont ensemble depuis. Les peintures de Perez célèbrent son identité d'homme gay et son amour pour son partenaire. Il dépeint également la diversité et la tolérance de Tel-Aviv, connue comme l'une des villes les plus gay-friendly au monde.

Les peintures de Perez ont été exposées en Israël et à l'étranger et ont reçu des critiques positives de la part des critiques et du public. Ses œuvres sont considérées comme originales et rafraîchissantes, car elles offrent une perspective différente sur la vie urbaine. Ses peintures ne sont pas censées être réalistes ou précises, mais plutôt évoquer un sentiment de nostalgie, de fantaisie et d'optimisme. Perez invite les téléspectateurs à le rejoindre dans son voyage d'exploration et de profiter de la beauté des villes.

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.
