EFRAT LAUFER / W Tower Gallery01/05/2019 to - 05/06/2019 Curator: Lori Pashnica The artist Efrat Laufer, a mother of two daughters embracing grandchildren, sculptor, painter and jewelry designer was born in Haifa and now lives in Ra'anana. Efrat worked for 42 years as a bookkeeper for 25 years at a well known American company. After moving to Raanana, the world of sculpture she has been dealing with for 22 years opens. Efrat focuses on figurative sculpture in clay and wax, and casting sculptures in bronze, marble powder or polyester castings, with combinations of materials such as stone and wood. In order to specialize, she completed four years of studies at the Beit Berl College of Art and Painting. Studying at the Midrasha opened a gateway to the field of painting, which enabled her to graphically express her world view. Efrat is well-versed and updated with regard to art that is close to her heart. She enriches her knowledge of visits to exhibitions in Israel and around the world, from many lectures, from reading art books and from her personal connections with many artists. The exhibition features rich works in various techniques. When she plans to sculpt, she travels to distant and unpredictable regions, and while creating and experiencing creation she tends to the figurative style. Experience and skill in a wide variety of techniques developed today give her tools to sculpt jewelry, which is an adventure in itself in a world of techniques and materials that attract it so much. I asked the artist about the sculpture: "Flowering from the inside" and she replied: "A woman as a strong race From it grows a whip Branches of creativity and task managers, And when it goes down A new scion rises. " The sculptor is influenced by the experiences and emotions she experienced in the reality of her life. Her love for others, her family, her aesthetics and her inherent skill were absorbed in the work "Head of the Shoulder" presented in the exhibition. Efrat has participated in many exhibitions including: 2018 - Beit Shagal Haifa Group exhibition at the Chagall House, Haifa.
