An album begins with an empty space. A white shape, devoid of content, to be filled with stamps, postcards, letters, or photographs.1 A book-like object that stores a collection of associations, relationships, stories. Albums link people with people and people with the objects in their lives. They are at the center of the personal story: about family, about national identity, about place, love, and traumas. Photo albums are social objects whose history is embroiled in the developments of the photographic medium itself. They are possible interpretations, they can teach us to identify new approaches in photography or new aspects in the society and the place in which they were made. They point to the existential aspect of photography and can recount its history while understanding the meanings of photography – materially and socially.2 1 Originating in the 17th century, the word “album” is derived from the Latin “albus,” meaning white. Retrieved on 30.3.2019 from https://en.oxforddictionaries.com/definition/album 2 Mette Sandbye, Looking at the family photo album: a resumed theoretical discussion of why and how, Published online: 17 Dec 2014. https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.3402/jac.v6.25419 We could compare the formation and activity of the department to the creation of an album, which slowly takes shape over years of collecting and compiling, additions and deletions, multiple edits, through ongoing change, study, and scholarship; as a body of knowledge passed on from generation to generation, from lecturers to students, some of whom eventually take their place as the next generation of teachers in the department and continue to expand the tapestry of associations between the artists and the works. Opening event will include readings from Noa Sadka’s book Photographic Truth is Natural Truth — Chronicles of a Photography Department.3 for more information: David Adika: [email protected] Braverman Gallery: [email protected] 3 “The book Photographic Truth is Natural Truth — Chronicles of a Photography Department sets out to vividly and concretely bring to life the chronicles of photography in Israel through the dynamics of the teaching situation and the emerging correlation between academization and the perception of the discipline as ‘art,’ between how photography is taught and how it is perceived over the years – teaching as the realization of consciousness, as a practice of perception.” Noa Sadka, Photographic Truth is Natural Truth — Chronicles of a Photography Department, Tel Aviv: Resling, 2018, pg. 359 (in Hebrew).

  • Show and Tell the ‘Living Room’ Photography Exhibit at the Tel Aviv Museum Examines Discrepancies Between Objective and Subjective Reality
    ARTS DAVID ADIKA: Raising questions Show and Tell The ‘Living Room’ photography exhibit at the Tel Aviv Museum examines discrepancies between objective and subjective reality impressions. She held her hands up to blinker her eyes and shook her head for emphasis. Hadas Maor, the curator of the exhibit, views things differently. “We’re used to seeing female nudity in art and no one ever complains about that,” she says with a grin, in an inter- view with The Report. Referring to Marcel Duchamps, the early 20th century French- American artist who caused a stir when he included a urinal in a sculpture exhibit, she sug- gests that examining the borders between art and life is something that is worth doing on an ongoing basis. “Art is part of life and life is part of art.” Maor, 41, worked closely for more than a year with Gershuni and the other four Israeli Bernard Dichek Tuesday afternoon earlier this summer. The photographers featured in the exhibit. The five two middle-aged Russian-speaking women artists, all in their early forties, were part of the HE LIVELY AND OFTEN stared at each other and occasionally glanced at same class that graduated from Jerusalem’s provocative photographs on dis- visitors but did all they could to avert their gaze Bezalel Academy of Arts and Design 10 years play at the Helena Rubinstein from the photos on the walls around them. ago, and continue to meet socially and occa- Pavilion of the Tel Aviv Museum Those photos included life-size images of sionally work on the same subjects.

[email protected] Montreal, QC, H3X-3X4 www.sternthalbooks.com 2017 PUBLISHING PROGRAM 2 011 WINTER 2017 RAMI MAYMON FURTHER READING ‘Further Reading’ both reconstructs and deconstructs a photography exhibit created by Rami Maymon where objets d’art, images, and spreads from art history books are photographed in various poses and compositions. As a nod to the uncertainty of the medium’s empirical authority, Maymon approaches visual history in sculptural and performative terms, infusing his creative process into the already charged stature of the images selected. His technique infuses existing visual texts with additional worlds of content, referring the reader to materials which are external to the main text; The image, the original and the reproduction are no longer distinct concepts, but rather components of ongoing processes of continual reconsideration, which both reject the privileging of the finished image and situate re-appropriation as an act of semantic innovation. Reading the history of art through Writers / Joseph Cohen, Raphael Zagury-Orly Graphic reproductions, which are traditionally meant to document Design / Noa Segal and preserve past heritage, exposes the dynamic political forces which have facilitated changing ways of seeing. This edition builds upon this continual translation by collapsing the exhibition into an artist book. The walls BOOK FORMAT: of the Museum are transformed into pages, where the viewer zoomsin and out of the images, guided by the 23 X 30.7 CM exhibition›s numerical system, which stands in for the 110 PGS / COLOR / WOODFREE & COATED / 500 COPIES book’s page numbers.

Pavel Dias Zlín, 2019 © Eliška Blažková Vydala Univerzita Tomáše Bati ve Zlíně v edici Doctoral Thesis Summary. Publikace byla vydána v roce 2019. ISBN 978-80-7454-846-8 Klíčová slova: Becalel, Jeruzalém, škola, umění, fotografie Key words: Bezalel, Jerusalem, School, Art, Photography Plná verze disertační práce je dostupná v Knihovně UTB ve Zlíně. ABSTRAKT Předložená práce se zabývá historií, vývojem a současným stavem Becalelovy akademie umění a designu v Jeruzalémě se zvláštním přihlédnutím k postavení oboru umělecké fotografie, a to nejen v rámci samotné akademie, ale též v rámci izraelské společnosti a kultury a jejího vnímání fotografie jako uměleckého výrazového prostředku. Jsou to právě specifika izraelské společnosti a kultury, díky kterým byla fotografie dlouhou dobu nazírána nikoli jako plnohodnotný umělecký obor, ale především jako nástroj propagandy a dokumentaristiky. Samostatnou část práce tvoří rozhovory s předními osobnostmi akademie: malířem a pedagogem českého původu Jehudou Baconem, zakladatelem samostatné katedry fotografie Hananem Laskinem a pedagogem a jedním z nejvýznamnějších pedagogů v oboru umělecké fotografie v Izraeli, Yosaifem Cohainem. ABSTRACT This thesis focuses on history, development and the current state of affairs at the Bezalel Academy of Art and Design in Jerusalem, Israel, taking into accounts the status of Art Photography not only at the Academy itself but in the Israeli society and culture in general.

Adika is well aware that his subjects—whether people or things—carry a particular culture and class affiliation.
