Mordechai (Motti) Mizrachi (Hebrew: מוטי מזרחי, born 1946) is an Israeli multimedia artist who creates politically engaged conceptual works that combine sculpture, video, photography, public art and performance. Dough, Via Dolorosa (1973) and Healing (1980) marked the emergence of avant-garde Israeli performance and video art. Since the 1980s, he has created numerous site specific public sculptures.
Biography
Disabled since childhood, Motti Mizrachi uses humor and self-irony in his work, with an emphasis on the flaws and pleasures of the human body, while examining the oppression and control of the strong over the weak, both socially and politically. In 1969-1973, he studied at Bezalel Academy of Arts and Design in Jerusalem. He was represented in the 1980 Biennale de Paris, the 1987 and 1981 Sao Paulo Art Biennials, the 1988 Venice Biennale, and the 2003 Valencia Biennale.
Mizrachi lives in Tel Aviv, Israel.
