Arieh Lubin (he|אריה לובין, 1897–1980) was an Israeli artist.
Arieh (Leo) Lubin began to study art in Chicago in 1915, but left to join the Jewish Brigade in World War I. After the war, he studied in Europe and returned to Israel in 1922.
Lubin's work reflects contemporary trends of the 1920s. His main influences were Paul Cézanne, Pablo Picasso, and Henri Matisse.[1] He absorbed the Cubism of Derain and the Purism of Le Corbusier and Ozenfant by reading "L'Esprit Nouveau", a journal he ordered from Paris.[2] Lubin was one of the first Israeli artists to settle in the artists quarter of Safed.
Lubin died in Tel Aviv in 1980. He is buried in Trumpeldor Cemetery.
