  • Staring Back at the Sun: Video Art from Israel, 1970-2012 an Exhibition and Public Program Touring Internationally, 2016-2017
    Staring Back at the Sun: Video Art from Israel, 1970-2012 An Exhibition and Public Program Touring Internationally, 2016-2017 Roee Rosen, still from Confessions Coming Soon, 2007, video. 8:40 minutes. Video, possibly more than any other form of communication, has shaped the world in radical ways over the past half century. It has also changed contemporary art on a global scale. Its dual “life” as an agent of mass communication and an artistic medium is especially intertwined in Israel, where artists have been using video artistically in response to its use in mass media and to the harsh reality video mediates on a daily basis. The country’s relatively sudden exposure to commercial television in the 1990s coincided with the Palestinian uprising, or Intifada, and major shifts in internal politics. Artists responded to this in what can now be considered a “renaissance” of video art, with roots traced back to the ’70s. An examination of these pieces, many that have rarely been presented outside Israel, as well as recent, iconic works from the past two decades offers valuable lessons on how art and culture are shaped by larger forces. Staring Back at the Sun: Video Art from Israel, 1970-2012 traces the development of contemporary video practice in Israel and highlights work by artists who take an incisive, critical perspective towards the cultural and political landscape in Israel and beyond. Showcasing 35 works, this program includes documentation of early performances, films and videos, many of which have never been presented outside of Israel until now. Informed by the international 1 history of video art, the program surveys the development of the medium in Israel and explores how artists have employed technology and material to examine the unavoidable and messy overlap of art and politics.

  • 1 Claudia Gioia
    Claudia Gioia - Let’s start with your history. Your artistic education, your cultural references and influences and your personal path. How do you place your research and who were and who are your companions? Nahum Tevet – During my High School I started taking courses in painting and drawing. I was born in a kibbutz, and the kibbutz educational system was very supporting for art. I saw myself as a painter and immediately after the army I was looking for a place to study. I felt that the schools were not good places. I mean at that time the Academy was, only at the beginning, as a contemporary art school. There was actually Raffi Lavie, whose retrospective is now at the Venice Biennial, and in those years, in 1969 and 1970 he magnetized a group of young artists that studied with him mostly on a private basis. I was 23 and he was 33, at that time he was leading a real, I wouldn’t say revolution, but he was the most important figure in creating a new young scene of Israeli art. One could say that it was really the beginning of contemporariness; it was the end of a certain kind of painting that was mainly a local version of French abstraction. There were some three or four wonderful painters that were not known internationally. One of them was extremely important for the new generation: Arie Aroch. He was a painter and an intellectual who served the Israeli ambassador in Sweden at the time of Pontus Hulten, he knew about Duchamp and he saw Jasper Jones and Rauschenberg in real time, and somehow it influenced his work.

  • Revisiting Israeli Art Canon: the Story of Mashkof Group, 1968-1970 Noa
    International Journal of Art and Art History December 2016, Vol. 4, No. 2, pp. 27-44 ISSN: 2374-2321 (Print), 2374-233X (Online) Copyright © The Author(s).All Rights Reserved. Published by American Research Institute for Policy Development DOI: 10.15640/ijaah.v4n2p3 URL: https://doi.org/10.15640/ijaah.v4n2p3 Revisiting Israeli Art Canon: The Story of Mashkof Group, 1968-1970 Noa Avron Barak1 Abstract This historiographical article’s main goal is to fill the critical gap in the historical narrative of Israeli art by uncovering the activity of a previously unstudied, yet highly influential, Mashkof group - a multidisciplinary group of painters, poets and musicians operated in Jerusalem during the years 1968 to 1970. The group aimed to challenge old forms of art made in the city and to undermine institutional conventions of art presentation. Mashkof operated duringan important era in Israeli art as it shifted from art of the object to conceptual art.While Mashkof is not considered to be part of the local, narrow-based, art canon, its role in this conceptual turn is crucial. This article will fill this lacuna in the research of Israeli art and argue that Mashkof’s unique group activity formed the basis for the growth of conceptual art and conceptualism in Jerusalem as early as the late 1960s, and established the institutional and public acceptance that allowed its nationwide spread in the 1970s. Keywords: Israeli Art, artists groups, proto- conceptual art, 1960s, 1970s. Introduction The late 1960s and early 1970s are a fascinating and turbulent time in Israeli art history. Much like the art hubs in Europe and the United States at the time, Israeli art responded to surrounding external and internal changes in the art scene; both the art world and art production and consumptions had undergone tremendous transformations.

Er entlehnt seine Darstellungen historischen Familienfotografien. Auch wenn es zunächst so scheint, als stünde die familiäre, persönliche Geschichte im Mittelpunkt, so geht es ihm vielmehr darum, etwas über die Art und Umsetzung der Malerei zum Ausdruck zu bringen. Dabei reflektiert er ihre Geschichte aber auch zeitgenössische Positionen. Die Familie ist der anfängliche, sichtbare Orientierungspunkt und zugleich Metapher für die Vielschichtigkeit der Kunstwelt; ein weit verzweigter künstlerischer Stammbaum, der wie alle Familien Schatten wirft, Dinge ermöglicht und andere blockiert. Olafs Biografie unterscheidet sich von den meisten seiner in Israel lebenden und arbeitenden Zeitgenossen. Sein Werdegang beginnt als Jugendlicher im Atelier des Bildhauers und Bauzeichners Zvi Lachman; unter dessen Anleitung studiert er Malerei, betrachtet Rembrandt und kopiert Cézanne. Im Laufe der Jahre wird Olaf sein Schüler, nicht gerade eine übliche Kunstausbildung in Israel. Während man eher die Auseinandersetzung mit Kunstwerken in den Mittelpunkt stellt, wurde Olaf durch einen erfahrenen Künstlers wie zu Zeiten der Renaissance geprägt. Später ging er nach New York, um seine Studien in einem formaleren Kontext an der New York Studio School und an der Parsons School fortzusetzen. Als er nach Tel Aviv zurückkehrte, durchlebte er eine künstlerische Krise. Im Irrgarten der Möglichkeiten, Richtungen und Stile war ihm die israelische Kunst zunächst fremd. In seinem Studio schuf er großformatige, expressive und figurative Bilder auf Leinwand und fühlte sich von Francis Bacon und Georg Baselitz inspiriert.

  • The Place of Diasporic Imagery in the Canon of Israeli National Art
    arts Article The National, the Diasporic, and the Canonical: The Place of Diasporic Imagery in the Canon of Israeli National Art Noa Avron Barak Department of Arts, Ben-Gurion University of the Negev, Beer-Sheba 8499000, Israel; [email protected] Received: 9 January 2020; Accepted: 15 March 2020; Published: 26 March 2020 Abstract: This article explores Jerusalem-based art practice from the 1930s to the 1960s, focusing particularly on the German immigrant artists that dominated this field in that period. I describe the distinct aesthetics of this art and explain its role in the Zionist nation-building project. Although Jerusalem’s art scene participated significantly in creating a Jewish–Israeli national identity, it has been accorded little or no place in the canon of national art. Adopting a historiographic approach, I focus on the artist Mordecai Ardon and the activities of the New Bezalel School and the Jerusalem Artists Society. Examining texts and artworks associated with these institutions through the prism of migratory aesthetics, I claim that the art made by Jerusalem’s artists was rooted in their diasporic identities as East or Central European Jews, some German-born, others having settled in Germany as children or young adults. These diasporic identities were formed through their everyday lives as members of a Jewish diaspora in a host country—whether that be the Russian Empire, Poland, or Germany. Under their arrival in Palestine, however, the diasporic Jewish identities of these immigrants (many of whom were not initially Zionists) clashed with the Zionist–Jewish identity that was hegemonic in the nascent field of Israeli art.

  • Neither a Sabra, Nor a Geranium
    Studies in Visual Arts and Communication: an international journal Vol 4, No 1 (2017) on-line ISSN 2393 - 1221 Opening Raffi’s Box: Neither a Sabra, Nor a Geranium Nava Sevilla-Sadeh* Abstract As an artist distinctively identified with the currents of conceptual art, Raffi Lavie (1937-2007) was one of the most influential artists on the Israeli art scene during the 1970s and 80s, and also represented Israel at the 53rd Venice Biennale. Although much has been written on his artistic work, it has remained enigmatic, given that his signifiers are deliberately vague. Lavie’s case was defined by the historian of Israeli art, Gideon Ofrat, as “Raffi’s Box”, in equivalence to the mythological Pandora’s Box, as an issue ostensibly not to be decoded. This study examines four collages created by Lavie from the beginning of the 1980s, composed of photos of Classical images. The accepted interpretations have conceived these images as declaratively meaningless and as worthless pieces of history; from the premise that all that remains from the Classical past is but a lexicon of banal and depleted images. The argument underlying the present study is that, rather, these very images are the signifiers of the abstract meaning claimed of Lavie’s work, as contended by most of his commentators, and even expressed by him in a certain way. This research, which belongs to the field of Classical Reception Studies, offers a critical analysis achieved via a deconstructive methodology, according to which the Classical images are conceived as a supplementary or parasitic text within the main text, present in order to reaffirm the accuracy of the latter.

  • Beyond Recognition
    Beyond recognition By DAVID STROMBERG Jerusalem Post - Oct 22, 2009 13:09 | Updated Oct 22, 2009 13:15 In 1998, when painter Efrat Galnoor (b. Jerusalem, 1970) was studying at Hamidrasha School of Art, she was the only one doing representational art. It was considered "traditional," a no-no that was not interesting. As she remembers, legendary artist and teacher Raffi Lavie told her to stop painting and take up photography. Efrat Galnoor: Atzulat Hakfar, oil on canvas, 2008 "The position was against the world of figurative art," explains Galnoor, who teaches at Hamidrasha and was recently appointed head of the Drawing and Painting Department. "It was considered unnecessary. [Representation] wasn't the role of art, there was nothing to be said." At art school, if she needed to figure out something technical, she had to do it on her own. "The medium of the work was almost a by-product [of the idea]." The work was done at home or in the studio, and there were almost no in-class workshops. Instead, the focus was on getting familiar with artists, learning about the art world and finding a conceptual niche. The only teacher who coached and encouraged her technically was Mitch Becker, who had started out in abstract expressionism in the 1950s but slowly shifted into figurative work. Galleries like Alon Segev weren't around yet and the figurative scene was underground. "I was very interested in the theoretical part," Galnoor insists. "I was very dedicated, read every article and told my students to do this." But she also continued to create figurative works, and every painting in her graduation show in 1998 was either sold or picked up for exhibition.

  • The Igal Ahouvi Collection Will Be Exhibited Publically for the First Time
    The Igal Ahouvi Collection will be exhibited publically for the first time in a series of exhibitions at the Tel Aviv University Gallery We are delighted to announce the launch of a collaboration between the Igal Ahouvi Collection and the Tel Aviv University Gallery, in a move which will contribute greatly to the promotion of the art community and the community of art-lovers in Israel. The Igal Ahouvi Collection exhibitions will be held alongside independent exhibitions presented by the University Gallery. This collaboration embraces the University Gallery’s vision and intends to present 12 art exhibitions which will be open to the general public. This move provides an opportunity for students and the general public to come in direct contact with key works of contemporary art from Israel and abroad. Through the exhibition series, the general public is invited to experience top-notch artworks by prominent contemporary artists from the Igal Ahouvi Collection which have never been exhibited before in Israel. The gallery will host lectures and gallery talks as well as present commissioned works by Israeli and international artists. The exhibitions will be accompanied by comprehensive catalogues featuring essays by theorists, curators, and cultural figures and scholars from different areas. The move will enable students to encounter contemporary art, analysis and criticism in the presence of the works themselves and allow the art and art-lovers community to see the scholarly practice that drives the collection and its thoroughgoing work in the Israeli art field. The Igal Ahouvi Collection exhibition program will be put together in collaboration with the University Gallery’s management team, alongside its own planned exhibition program.
