Uri Dushi
Uri Dushy is a multidisciplinary Israeli artist known for his vibrant, mixed-media sculptures and urban art installations. Born in Tel Aviv in 1963, Dushy has developed a distinctive style that combines pop culture imagery with bold, colorful compositions. His work often references artists like Robert Indiana and Banksy, drawing from advertising, comics, and other mass culture sources to engage viewers in a creative dialogue.
Dushy’s art spans various media, from three-dimensional metal wall sculptures to large-scale public installations found across cities in Israel and around the world. His public works are designed to interact with their surroundings, using light and shadow to create dynamic effects. In his gallery pieces, Dushy often incorporates metal cutouts, giving his works a unique depth that creates the illusion of movement and floating figures.
His art emphasizes optimism, curiosity, and self-reflection, with a particular focus on themes of love and urban life. Dushy aims to provoke thought while offering viewers an immersive, visually striking experience. His work is exhibited globally and collected both privately and publicly.
