Life and career
Life and career
Zabari was born in Jerusalem in 1935. He studied under Ludwig Yehuda Wolpert and David Gumbel at the Bezalel Academy of Arts and Design in Jerusalem. He was artist-in-residence for almost three decades at New York's Jewish Museum. He returned to his native Israel in the 1980s. He was known for his modernist approach, a reviewer described his 1998 sculpture, "Death by Stoning," as "elegant and beautiful," despite describing a "terrible act of violence." In 1990 he was awarded the Jesselson Prize for Contemporary Judaica Design. In 2015 Zabari was honoured with a Retrospective at the Jerusalem Biennale. Zabari died in 2025.
