Menachem Gueffen (19 March 1930 – 12 February 2016) was an Israeli painter and caricaturist. Gueffen was born to Jewish parents from Poland in 1930 in the city of Haifa, then administered under the British Mandate, in what is now Israel. In 1947, 17 years old, he joined the Palmach. He was wounded in May 1948 in Malkia. He was hospitalized for eight months. From 1949 to 1953 he studied Graphics at Bezalel Art School, Jerusalem; and during 1959–63 at the École des Beaux-Arts, Paris. Gueffen works in large format, primarily in oils on canvas. His latest works are collages, oil and sack on natural canvas, jute or wood. He produces many drawings, and works essentially from sketches of models. He has also illustrated certain books: Robinson Crusoe published by the Israeli publisher Am Oved in the 1960s and he provided the illustrations for The World's Best Jewish Jokes by Ben Eliezer, published in 1984.
