Dov Lederberg’s Artist Biography

Born Bronx NY, grew up in Philadelphia area, since 1967 living in New Jersey and Israel. Received B.A. Haverford College. Never formally studied painting in art school. In the 60’s I was an “underground” filmmaker and made the well regarded: “Eargogh”, starring Jack Smith as Vincent. Between 1970 and 1994 worked as film director as well as creating videoart.

My transition to painting came accidentally. Stills from my videos attracted a local gallery which deemed it worthy for an exhibition. I quickly learned to transfer their essential designs to canvas using airbrush and other techniques. Since 1995 I have created over 400 paintings, exhibited in galleries & museums in Israel and USA.
