Gerasim Antarin is a unique, exceptional, and rare painter in every respect – his style, his ideas, and even his way of life.
His paintings are filled with mystery and evoke a sense of a slow, prolonged descent into an enchanting and enigmatic world that belongs to another realm. Antarin paints people he has known throughout his life: women, animals, landscapes, hourglasses, musicians, and magicians, all appearing in a dreamy, hushed space, with a spiritual and even mystical atmosphere reminiscent of the saintly figures in Byzantine icons.

Antarin combines oil paints with tempera, an ancient painting technique, creating figures with similar physiognomy: delicate and slender faces, sharp and clear features, and an introverted, melancholic expression, as if they carry an existential burden upon their shoulders.
Within Gerasim Antarin’s artistic work lies a profound search for the essence of the universe, time, existence, and eternity.

A festive end of year performance

The show presents instrumental music composed, produced, and arranged by Yogev Shetrit – a blend of the traditional music he grew up with, Andalusian, Moroccan, and Israeli styles combined with contemporary jazz. Melodic, rhythmic, and full of life.

Since 2016, the trio has performed in more than thirty countries at festivals and venues such as the prestigious Panama Jazz Festival and the Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C., one of the most renowned stages in the United States. He has recorded two studio albums and two live albums, and is currently working on a new one.
