Assaf Shani was born in 1976 u Israel.

Shani is a painter and an architect. His profession manifests in attention to detail, precise choice of color and carefully planned brush strokes. The end result is characteristically realistic, yet personalized and focused

Shani’s manner of work makes the viewer think he may have already seen this landscape section or a similar one in the past; Maybe he walked there before. Shani manages to create a sense of silence and almost partnership with the viewer looking at the works. In a certain way his paintings are not just descriptions , but also become a scene, wishing to present the special feeling inherent in the Israeli landscape and its humanity, a sense that even without a title or without being exhibited in Israel, Many Israelis would be able to recognize the scenery described in his work as “a view from here”.
