Joshua Neustein, an Israeli visual artist, was born in Danzig, Germany/Poland in 1940. At age 11, his family moved to New York, where he studied for five years in an Orthodox Yeshiva. He then studied at the Pratt Institute of Art, and in Art Studio League, in New York City.
In 1964 Neustein immigrated to Israel and in 1979 returned to New York City, where he lives today. He taught at the Bezalel Academy of Art and Design in Jerusalem.
In the late 60s and early 70s Neustein was a central figure in the Israeli community of artists and one of the pioneers of contemporary art. In 1968 he created the first major environmental work in Israel, in the Jerusalem Artists' House. In this work he displayed thousands of old army boots that filled the rooms of the house.
Neustein is known primarily for his environmental installations and Post-minimalist torn- paper works, as well as his series of large-scale map paintings. He is considered one of the founding fathers of Environmental Conceptual Art in Israel.
Neustein's work over the last decade revolves around the existence of the Israeli Jew and the Jew in exile, focusing on issues of territoriality and mobility, which is why the map is a central theme in his work.
Joshua Neustein lives and works in New York and Tel Aviv.
