He was saved from the nova just hours before the terrorist attack

Brofman himself was saved from the massacre in Nova when he left the place a few hours before the terrorist attack by Hamas, and this is because he is a die-hard fan of the green Maccabi Haifa team, and that Saturday he had a ticket to the game against Hapoel Beer Sheva at the "Sami Ofer" stadium, in Haifa.

Self-taught in his field

Benzi Brofman, for those who don't know, is self-taught in his field who never studied art in an orderly and formal way, he started his graffiti paintings more than 10 years ago when he painted on various walls throughout the State of Israel and also throughout the countries of the world including Germany, England, and more.

Starting in 2022, Brofman began painting graffiti of Maccabi Haifa soccer players on all kinds of walls throughout the city of Haifa. Among others, Brofman painted Charon Sherry, Yaakov Shahar, Barak Bacher, Neta Lavi, the late goalkeeper Avi Ran, Yaniv Katan and Reuven Atar. As a tribute to the green fans of the Maccabi Haifa team and his sympathy for the team captain Lior Rafalov who stars on the grass at the team's games, he came this week (Wednesday, 4/12/2024) to the street of Kibbutz Galyot in the lower city in order to draw the Portrait of Rafalov the Green.

At the end of Lior Rafalov's new graffiti creation, Benzi Brofman said to "Hai Pa - the News Corporation":
"The portrait and portrait of the Maccabi Haifa captain, Lior Rafalov, which I painted in the lower city - a place I particularly like - took me almost five hours to complete. I greatly appreciate Rafalov and the other Maccabi Haifa players, and I am excited to hear your opinion on the result in the comments to the article."

Now, you are invited to be impressed by the amazing creation, presented here before you in this article.
