Artist Bio
Calman Shemi (b. 1939) is an Argentinian-born, Israeli-based artist recognized for his innovative use of textiles, painting, and mixed media. A student of sculpture under Rudi Lehmann, Shemi later developed his own techniques for “soft painting” and textile works, where fibers are layered and compressed to achieve painterly effects. His art often balances abstraction with expressive emotion, earning him international exhibitions and commissions. Today, Shemi’s works are represented in major collections worldwide and are admired for their inventive fusion of fine art and craft traditions.
