Artist context
About Moshe Kupferman
Moshe Kupferman (1926–2003) was a Polish-born Israeli painter whose career spanned more than three decades. Born in Poland, Kupferman immigrated to Israel, where he was active in a kibbutz as early as 1948 before dedicating himself to studio painting. His work is held in the collection of the Museum of Modern Art in New York, affirming his place within the broader post-war international art landscape. He is documented in the Bénézit Dictionnaire critique et documentaire des peintres and catalogued by leading library authorities including the Getty Union List of Artist Names, VIAF, and the RKD Netherlands Institute for Art History. Kupferman's practice was concentrated in painting, and his career included sustained periods of studio work from the 1960s through the early 2000s.
