Bracha Lavee

Bracha Brym-Lavee (born 1948[1]) is a Jerusalem-based artist.[2]

Born Bracha Brym in Poland, she moved to Israel in 1957, where she grew up and studied in Tiberias.[1] She won her first art prize at age seven in Poland, and throughout her schooling in Tiberias was known as the class artist.[1] In 1970, after graduation of high school and completion of military service, she enrolled in the Bezalel Art Academy in Jerusalem, where she met her future husband, Menachem Lavee, also a designer and artist and full partner in all of her projects.[1] Producing felt tapestries, prints, and her own line of wearable art in the 80s and 90s, her themes focus on Jerusalem, Israel, and the Bible.[1]
