Born in Sao-Paulo, Brazil (1973), by using simple, light and accessible materials and merging flat painting with three dimensional objects in an attempt to penetrate the viewer's space, Benny Katz conducts a search which intertwines between reality and biographical dimensions. His quest overshadows social or political issues and focuses on innocence, simplicity and lost childhood in a cynical, post-modern industrialist world. His works involve surrealism & dark humor, by taking familiar themes and giving them dark, kinky, added values. He has exhibited his works in New York, Brazil, Israel, Italy. After his personal exhibit in 2009 at Giudecca 795 Art Gallery, he exhibited his works at the Biennal de Cerveira, Portugal.
