In 2009, the Technion awarded Karavan an honorary doctorate. The citation read: “<\/span>In appreciation for your pioneering achievements and brilliance in the realm of art and environmental sculpture that has brought a heightened awareness of natural and built surroundings to the millions worldwide who have been privileged to view your artistic creations; in recognition of the enhancement of Israel\u2019s prestige on the international scene generated by your art and the understanding, promoted by the many works in which Jewish and Israeli themes and the yearning for peace predominate; in acknowledgment of the importance of art to scientific and technological endeavors; and in gratitude for the hand of friendship you have always extended toward the Technion.”<\/p>\n

At the graduation ceremony, Karavan said that: “Among all the scientists and engineers at the Technion, I feel a little unusual, even though I did my first work in cement and concrete and was greatly helped by the advice of Technion staff.”<\/span><\/p>\n

May he rest in peace.<\/span><\/p>\n
