Yair Garbuz, Israeli, multimedia artist, author and filmmaker, born 1945 Yair Barbuz was born in Givatayim. In the 1960s, after serving in the Israel Defense Forces, he studied painting at the Avni Institute and took private lessons with Israeli artist Raffi Lavie. He was active in the +Ten group. In 1974-1986, he created video art using techniques similar to collage, and wrote texts in the same style. In 1983-2004, he was one of the authors of a newspaper column, Davar Akher. In 1993, he hosted a satiric television show, "Ein im me ledaber" (No one to talk to), and wrote scripts for a current events program, Tik Tikshoret. Garbuz's early work, in the 1960s, combined photographic collage and scribbles to create expressive figurative portraits and grotesque nudes. From the mid-1970s to the mid-1980s, he made ironic use of characters from Zionist propaganda and incorporated texts in his compositions. Later, he returned to more traditional painting and created collages referencing the history of Israeli art.
