About - Amdur Fine Gallery:
The Amdur Fine Gallery of Contemporary Art attributes its name to two families that have pioneered the State of Israel. In this same pioneer spirit the owner and director of the Gallery, Talya Polinger, has founded the first contemporary art gallery in the heart of the Galilean city of Tiberias - on the picturesque cobblestone street of H'Kison between H'banam and H'Ga
lil Streets. The vision for the gallery is to provide a beautiful and dynamic venue for established and emerging Israeli contemporary artists, which will enrich and intrigue the community of Tiberias, the surrounding settlements, and those visiting the city from within Israel and internationally.
