Third work by the legendary artist, who makes photo history with his works Ein Ghetto im Osten Wilna (Martin Parr, The Photobook, vol 1, page 130) and Paris (Martin Parr, The Photobook, vol 1, page 128/129). Moï Ver (Moshé Raviv-Vorobeichic) was born in 1904 in Vilnius, Lithuania, where he also studied painting. In 1927, visited the Bauhaus in Dessau to take courses with Paul Klee, Wassily Kandinsky, and Joseph Albers, before he left for Paris to study at the Ecole de Photo Ciné. After several unrealised projects for photographic books, necessity led him to begin a career as a reporter. He immigrated to Palestine in 1934, and from 1950 he devoted himself to painting. He died in 1995.
