Timur Tsaku - Rabbi David Chai Abuchatzeira - Leading Kabbalist of our Generation. Signed

[ translate ]

Huge portrait of Kabbalist Rabbi David Abuchatzeira of Naharia - leading Kabbalist of our generation. Hyper-realistic art, photograph-like, that arouses astonishment, painted with a unique technique by artist Timur Tsaku, whose works glorify the palaces of Vladimir Putin and other world leaders.

Timur Tsaku, was born in Tashkent, Uzbekistan, in 1972. After graduating from art school in 1987, he continued his education in the P.P. Ben’kov College majoring in theater decoration and taught painting and sketching at the Tashkent Academy of Art and Theater. In 1991, Tsaku left for Israel, where he began working on Chayot HaKodesh ( The G-d’s Angels) paintings, that were later combined into one of his most significant art series. This series made Tsaku famous in the art world, and especially among the American artists of the realism genre. He returned to Israel in 2001 to create biblically-inspired Israeli art.

In 2006 Tsaku started working on portraits of the Jewish holy men ( Tsadikim). The virtuoso skill of his technique has helped to establish Tsaku as a true master of a portrait genre.

His portraits are characterized by their hyper-realistic style, and reflect a unique combination of artistic talent, black-and-white components and astounding technique of precision in the small details. The characters in his paintings take up the majority of the area of the pictures, with an abstract view in the background. Pictures of people and animals that he paints, using the "triple zero" paint brush and a magnifying glass, look almost like photographs. His successful virtuoso technique reflects the uniqueness, mood and character of the individual in a way that evokes pause. His works are so unique that the artist is immediately identifiable. His paintings arouse astonishment, combining hyper-realism and surrealism.

Tsaku was commissioned to paint a portrait of Boris Yeltsin in 2011, and he continues painting the official portraits of many of the Russian statesmen and diplomats.

His creations are displayed in the most prestigious art galleries in the United States, select collections in Israel, in the private collections of Russian president Vladimir Putin, prime minister of Russia Dmitry Medvedev, and many other Russian dignitaries.

Oil on wood painting. Black and white, 52X76 cm. Including wooden frame, 106X82 cm. Signed by the artist.
