Description

Brigitte NaHoN

American-Israeli-French artist Brigitte NaHoN got a Master’s in Fine Arts at Provence University and a Master II in Fine Arts at Paris Sorbonne. In 1994, NaHoN received The Villa-Medicis- Hors-les Murs Award and lived and worked in Manhattan for 15 years. In July 2009, she put herself in balance again to be closer to her concept and roots and made Alyah. She currently lives and works in Bat Yam. 

NaHoN pushes the limits of life, space, and time in her being and her artwork since 1985. She shows privileged moments of life when everything is balanced with an infinity of possibilities.
