Multidisciplinary group exhibition

On
Saturday 9/10/22, a multidisciplinary group exhibition will open at the Givat Haviva
Art Gallery, featuring 27 artists who are preoccupied with the body - the body
as marker, the marking of the body, the apparent body.
The
human body is the most political material that we can deal with. It is a
functional, intimate and sensitive system that enables the existence of every
one of us, yet at the same time it serves as a tool for others to control us
through social concepts, values and external laws related to gender, society
and culture.
Through
a wide variety of media (photography, video, painting, sculpture, jewelry,
performance, and mixed techniques), the exhibition presents various instances
of marking the body. The works use, emphasize and disrupt these instances and
turn them into an artistic action.
The
treatment of the private body and the personal stories open up a possibility
for a physical experience that is sometimes joyful and often painful, but
almost always felt deeply in the spectator's body. A door opens to a broader,
critical thinking, about those different forces that affect us, which are
brought to light here.
The
exhibition as a whole that consists of private experiences, proposes to the
viewer to take part in a complex process of resistance, exposure, subversion,
and perhaps even in the liberation of the body.
