Josephine Yaroshevich

Josephine Yaroshevich (; born 1946) is a Ukrainian painter who works with computer art.

Biography Josephine Yaroshevich was born in Kharkiv to a Jewish family, and grew up in Odesa. She studied art at Odesa with well-known painters Lev Mejberg and Zoy Ivnitzkaia. She also studied at the Moscow Art Academy under the guidance of professor Volia Nikolatvich Liahov. She taught at the Stroganoff Academy and Polygraphists Institute, and worked at the famous Taganka Theater, both in Moscow. There, she was associated with Nonconformists Group. The origins of her art stem from the Russian avant-garde; Kandinsky, Malevich, El Lissitzky and Scriabin influenced her spiritual and aesthetic development.

She has resided in Jerusalem since 1973. Here, she taught at the Bezalel Academy of Arts and Design, and worked at the Israel Museum, the Rockefeller Museum and the Hebrew University.

Yaroshevich's paintings are characterized by a vibrant and evolving quality. She explores a range of artistic media and approaches in her work, using both traditional oil painting and digital media. Her works have been noted for their emphasis on visual composition and color. Throughout her career, she has continued to experiment with different methods of artistic expression, combining traditional painting techniques with contemporary digital practices.

She has worked with computers since 1975; when she began working at the Art and Science Department at the Bezalel Academy in Jerusalem with Vladimir Bonachech. Then, for the first time, a huge colored digital board, connected to a computer, was exhibited at the National Museum in Jerusalem. Yaroshevich exhibits all over the world: in Israel, the United States, Canada, Russia, England, France, Germany, Japan and China. Her works are in museums in Jersey City, Haifa and Montgeron, as well as in the collections of Senator Henry Jackson, Dan Hamilton, famous collector Alexander Glaser and many others. In 2010, "Music in Color" was presented at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Shanghai and the Israel Museum in Jerusalem.
