Transcription

History

Piven was born in Uruguay (and named at birth Ernesto), and moved to Israel with his family at the age of eleven, where his name was changed to the Hebrew name Hanoch, as it was customary at the times. He grew up in Ramat Gan.[1] He studied at the School of Visual Arts in New York, graduating in 1992.[2] When he returned to Israel in 1995, he began to work for Haaretz newspaper.[3]

Artistic career

Piven's illustrated compositions are assembled from common objects and scraps of materials, including items which might be associated with the subject (for example, using bologna and liquor bottles to create Boris Yeltsin for Haaretz in 2000).[4] His caricatures appear in Time, Newsweek, Rolling Stone, The Atlantic Monthly, The Times, and Entertainment Weekly, among other publications.
