Calman Shemi Listed Artist Postmodern Abstract Metal Wall Sculpture, “musical Notes #9”

Calman Shemi (Argentina/Israel, b. 1939), Musical Notes #9, Painted Steel Wall Piece, 1995, signed and numbered 9/9. Provenance: Purchased from Circle Gallery February 29, 1996. This is such a fun colorful piece to hang in your house and goes well within any modern decor. Every room needs one whimsical decor piece or piece of furniture. Or I also like having one thing that clashes with the overall vibe or the room but still feels natural. This could be that piece!
Calman Shemi is an Argentinian-born Israeli artist best known for his Soft paintings. These works are wall hangings composed of textiles organized like a collage. Shemi sews individual pieces together into tapestries, producing colorful arrangements reminiscent of Henri Matisse?s cutouts. Born in 1939 in Argentina, he studied under Libero Badii and Rudi Lehmann at the School of Sculpture and Ceramics in Mendoza, and in 1961, he moved to the Kibbutz Carmia in Israel. Shemi’s works are in the collections of the Spertus Museum of Judaica in Chicago and the Chicago Fashion Institute. He continues to live and work in Israel. (Artnet)
