Biography

Batia Magal was born in Israel in 1953. Her interest in art and drawing talent were exhibited early in her childhood.  Batia was accepted as a student at the Avni Art Institute, where she came under the tutelage and influence of such well known artists as Streichman, Wexler, Propes and others.

Magal's work has over time developed along various lines, all of which converged and fused into a very personal and feminine statement. For several years now, she has extended her endeavors to include photography, printing methods, etching and engraving.

It is characteristic of Magal's paintings that the flowing calligraphic drawing of the female figure is the centerpiece which forms the structural basis of the work. The basic calligraphic drawing of the female figure or flower-filled vase is the centerpiece which forms the structural base of her paintings.   Brilliant washes of lively colors act as a counterpoint, with the deeper and warmer hues evoking the luminosity of medieval stained-glass windows.

More recently, yet another intriguing factor has been added by the introduction of fabric textures and prints of a seemingly unconnected nature, forming collages in which the three elements of drawing, color and print or fabric texture, maintain a balance which tends to emphasize the works' structural composition.

The limited edition serigraph prints presented below iportray women in their natural environment. Batia's models are seductive and self indulgent. Composed in their intimate space, they project a hidden secret.  Batia Magal creates her art at a studio located in the scenic countryside. Additionally she teaches at the Kalmania Fine Arts Institute.
