TENNO PENT SOOSTER

I was born into a family of artists in 1957 in Moscow, Russia. My father was the famous artist Ulo Ilmar Sooster, and my mother was a puppet artist, so my path in life was clear from the start. In addition to my education as a artist, I also studied cartoon animation at the Fine Arts School and Director Film School in Goskino. Worked as an artist director of the full-length animated cartoon film “School of the Arts”, SOUZMULTFILM, Moscow

In 1990 I emigrated to Israel with my family, and today I live and work from my studio in

Tel Aviv. Member of the Union illustrators Israel. Taking part in exhibitions in Israel, as well

as international exhibitions.
