About
Eran Webber grew up in a kibbutz on the Carmel Coast of Israel.
His artistic training began in high school and at evening courses in Tel Aviv. In 2007, Webber moved to Italy to study the fundamentals of classical figurative art and was accepted to The Florence Academy of Art’s Sculpture Program. He graduated in 2010, and joined the faculty of the academy until 2013 as the Principal Instructor of the Sculpture Program.
In 2013, Webber founded the sculpture department at the "Ha’Tachana" school in Tel Aviv. At the same time, he returned to his hometown, Moshav Habonim, where he founded 'Atelier Webber', an institution that combines Eran's activities as an artist alongside teaching figurative sculpture and drawing in traditional techniques.
Webber is exhibiting & teaching internationally. His work can be found in private collections throughout Europe, Israel and the United States.

This prepares them for sculpting from life a life-size portrait and a 1/2 life-size figure. During the fourth week, students learn to cast with rubber/silicone. Each student casts one piece.
