About Amit Bar

In 1950 I was born in Kibbutz Kfar Hamaccabi, Israel, where I lived until 1988.
Since 1988 I live in Doetinchem, The Netherlands, and work as a freelance-photographer and painter. In my commercial work I take photographs for a stock agency and make commissioned work. Wishing to combine my photography with drawing and painting, I began to mix them in my artistic work. It began in 1992 with photo collages and took another form in 1996 with body-paintings.
For my living I photograph weddings and make portraits of families and particulars, as well as giving lessons and workshops of photography.
