Description:
Avner Zabari (Israeli, b. 1939) Cabinet, Miami, Florida, late 20th century, marked "Avner Zabari", Limited Edition #6/200," ht. 38 1/2, wd. 16, dp. 12 3/4 in.
Note: Zabari, known for his original, whimsical art sold throughout popular galleries in the U.S. and Europe, lent a discriminating brush to everything he touched. It was his early experimentation with wood that became the pathway to his successful future. 'I was fascinated with the temperament of the wood,' Zabari explained. 'The way the color would bleed or hold depending on the consistencies of the wood.' Zabari parlayed his need to recreate himself into a collection of colorful and deeply personal art and furniture every year.
