Barak Uranovsky

Glass Artist

Spirit inFUSED glass
Hi , I am  Barak Uranovsky. I am a glass artist involved in large scale stained glass and fused glass projects. I was born in Cape Town, South Africa in 1972 to an artistic family, sisters musicians, brother an architect and both parents artists. I studied art at school and did an apprenticeship with David Manning, one of South Africa’s leading stained-glass artists. In 1990 I came to Israel, planning to study for a year in Yeshiva, but ended up falling in love with the country and staying. In 95′ I opened my own glass studio, slowly developing and adding new techniques to my repertoire. Since then I have designed stained glass, Eternal lamps, Arks, Bimot, Memorials, Dedication Walls and Mezuzot for Synagogues and Private homes all over Israel and the United States. I live on a small Moshav to the South of Israel with my wife and our seven children. Lately I have become a proud grandfather.

My Vision
"The most exciting part of the process of glass art includes painting with ground glass on the glass canvas. I try to do this painting in one sitting, the effect is more spontaneous and alive rather than trying to be in control. I envision a real, unique art form that is Jewish in its inception—I don't wish to make art that is Jewish, but Jewish art. That is Jewish art in its idea, subject, feeling and method."
