David Reeb
born 1952, Rehovot, Israel

Camel / Time, 1989
Acrylic on canvas
Collection of Mary Faouzi Gallery, Jaffa

David Reeb employs logos for the two most popular cigarette brands in Israel—Camel and Time—in this work. Like Andy Warhol’s Brillo Boxes, which function as icons of American commodity culture, Reeb’s art finds inspiration and meaning in local corporate images.
