Liat Yossifor is a painter who received her BFA from the San Francisco Art Institute in 1996, and her Master of Fine Arts from the University of California, Irvine in 2002.
She was an Artist-in-residence at: the Rauschenberg residency in Florida, and at the Frankfurter Kunstverein in Germany.
She has had solo exhibitions at The Contemporary Art Museum St. Louis; Pomona College Museum of Art; The Armory Center for the Arts; Galerie Anita Beckers, Frankfurt; Patron Gallery, Chicago; Miles McEnery Gallery, New York, and Fox Jensen Gallery, Sydney, Australia.
Liat is in public collections such as The Margulies Collection, Miami, FL; Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA); and The Hammer Museum, Los Angeles, CA, among others. 
I caught up with Liat over the net for a talk about avoiding technology, starting painting figuratively and moving into abstraction, materiality, studio life and much more.
