Artists Dorit Levinstein and Yoel Benharrouche, present the unmissable ‘ Garden of Eden’

Eden Fine Art, alongside artists Dorit Levinstein and Yoel Benharrouche, present the unmissable ‘ Garden of Eden’ exhibition.

The exhibition is based on themes of a biblical Eden which have captured the imagination of Levinstein and Benharrouche a notion that strikes a chord with both artists as a result of their individual connections to Judaism. The artists, in cooperation with Eden Fine Art Mayfair, invite art collectors and guests to enjoy an evening of contemporary expression with a twist, an artistic paradise on earth full of natural imagery, and an exploration of innocence.

Benharrouche’s signature style radiates block colors, interesting forms, and curved shapes, promising to bring a new dimension to spirituality. He claims that his ‘paintings translate [his] inner world and are therefore an inseparable part of spiritual life.’

This concept is something that Levinstein shares, however, she does so by toying with continuous lines and playful patterns, teasing her audience much like the snake goading Eve to succumb to the forbidden fruit. On creation, Levinstein comments that ‘there is a magical moment when the artwork starts to come alive and take the lead,’ drawing similarities between the birth of an artwork and the story of Genesis.

The preview will see the gallery turned in to its very own conservatory with natural scenery from set designers Palmbrokers (Sleepy Hollow, Troy, Princess Bride) who will adorn the space with plants and trees. Will Best (TV Personality & DJ) and ReviveHER Records will be curating funky sounds of paradise with an expelling DJ set throughout the night and there will be a live performance from Tanya Cracknell aka The Grime Violinist amongst other surprise guests.

Regularly exhibiting modern collections from all over the world, Eden Fine Art Mayfair features 12,000 square feet and four floors of art gallery space full of inspiring, and evocative artwork. At the Exhibition Preview, guests will take pleasure from exploring original paintings and sculptures by Levinstein and Benharrouche and enjoy an exclusive party with the artists themselves. Working with Eden Fine Art for a total of 20 years combined, there is no doubt that these artists will be bringing a breathtaking collection to London — one that is not to be missed.

About The Artists
Dorit Levinstein is a sculptor and a painter studied her craft at the Avni Institute of Art and Design. Her work invites you to step into her universe of forms, figures, and colours. Her spare, elegant sculptures seem to giggle with delight as if tickled, and then stretch out with an exquisite elasticity to form their position in space. The sculptures derive their volume from a continuous virtuosic line alluding to human figures, animals, flowers, and objects. @dorit_levinstein

Yoel Benharrouche was trained and educated as an artist in the south of France, Benharrouche went on to become a distinguished professor of drawing and painting at Nice’s Academy Paganini. His influences include masters such as Chagall, Picasso and Miro, yet Benharrouche’s personal style comes through in each of his composition with much strength, balance and harmony. @yoelbenharrouche
