He left school to help his mother and provide for the family.[2]
From 1947 to 1950, Kadishman studied with the Israeli sculptor Moshe Sternschuss at the Avni Institute of Art and Design under Aharon Avni in Tel Aviv, and in 1954 with the Israeli sculptor Rudi Lehmann in Jerusalem.
In 1950, Kadishman joined the Nahal infantry brigade[1] and he worked as a shepherd on KibbutzMa'ayan Baruch for the next three years. This experience with nature, sheep and shepherding had a significant impact on his later artistic work and career.
In 1959, Kadishman moved to London to study at Saint Martin's School of Art and the Slade School of Art.[3&
