Michael Hittleman Gallery

Moshe Castel, (1909-1991). One of Israel's greatest early masters. Castel's art has spanned the whole history of Israeli modern art. His works range from pastoral fantasy to modern calligraphy representing the ancient past. A Castel Museum is being erected in Israel. He was part of the School of Paris in the late 1920's. His newer works reflect Israel's mania for its archeological past. He uses ancient feeling imagery that is figurative and abstract.
