description: "Joseph (Yossef) Zaritsky was one of the early promoters of modern art in the Land of Israel both during the period of the Yishuv and after the establishment of the State. Regarded as one of the most influential Israeli painters, Zaritsky is known for cofounding the \"Ofakim Hadashim\" group. In his works, he created a uniquely Israeli style of abstract art. For this work he was awarded the Israel Prize for painting in 1959."
