Leo (“Lior”) Roth (1914, Austria-Hungary – 2002, Afikim, IL) was an Israeli painter known for his Cubist compositions. Roth developed his craft studying fresco painting in Florence and mural painting at École des Beaux-Arts in Paris before moving to Israel. After arriving in Tel Aviv, he moved to Kvutzat Kinneret, where he worked as a shepherd and farmer, and finally to Kibbutz Afikim, where he taught painting to his community and directed arts programming. Roth’s works are held in the Rockefeller Art Center; Israel Museum, Jerusalem; Tel Aviv Art Museum, Israel; Museum of Art Ein Harod, Israel; State University of New York, Fredonia; and Students Center, Brooklyn College, NY.
