Description: Isaac Maimon 1993 Corner Cafe Fine Art Book 1st Edition Hardcover Book Good Condition Known for painting society scenes in bold colors, Isaac Maimon was born in Israel in 1951 to French-speaking parents. In his artwork, he shows influence of the “boulevard culture” of French society and the Paris school of art, including the paintings of Toulouse-Lautrec. Maimon did military service and then studied at the Avni Institute of Fine Art in Tel Aviv, where he was exposed to the Paris school. In 1980, he began a teaching career, starting at the School of Visual Arts in Beer-Sheba and later at the Kaye Art Academy. By the late 1980s, he was a professor of art at Ben-Gurion University in Beer-Sheba. During this time, he learned about coffee house management, bought a pub, and ran a restaurant. Often, while observing his customers, he would sketch their activities, then create paintings from these preliminary sketches. Maimon’s work was discovered in 1989 by Talking Walls, an art publishing group in Israel, which sponsored exhibitions for him in Israel and in New York. Since then, he has had several touring solo exhibitions in the U.S.
