Moshe Zabari (born 1935, in Jerusalem)[1] is an Israeli artist known for his silver Judaica.
He studied under Ludwig Yehuda Wolpert and David Gumbel at the Bezalel Academy of Arts and Design in Jerusalem.[2][3][4]
Zabari was artist-in-residence for almost three decades at New York's Jewish Museum.[5] He returned to his native Israel in the 1980s.[2] He is known for his modernist approach, a reviewer described his 1998 sculpture, "Death by Stoning," as "elegant and beautiful," despite describing a "terrible act of violence."[6]
In 1990 he was awarded the Jesselson Prize for Contemporary Judaica Design.[7]
In 2015 Zabari was honoured with a Retrospective at the Jerusalem Biennale.[8][9]
