Micha Bar Am Baby in Field
I have adopted Robert Capa's saying: "If your photographs aren't good enough, you weren't close enough". But in retrospect I add a corollary: If you're too close, you lose perspective...

Daniel Bauer 75% Mattress
Bauer moves from the impersonal to the highly personal - his soiled and stained mattress. It is transformed from being an intimate, soft, and familiar refuge at home to being hard, cold, and exposed to the public gaze...

Daniel Bauer Panoramas
Bauer turns himself into a contemporary Argos, taking hundreds of small photographs to make up the single final image. However, the process is not like simple mathematics, where the sum of the parts makes up the whole.

Zadok Ben David Big Science
The piece is really an oversized flip book that yields a different series of images depending on where your fingers happen to begin flipping and in which direction the pages start to flow.

Aya Ben Ron Blister
At first sight Aya Ben-Ron's Blister resembles a multidimensional greeting card blown up into a wall object. The viewer is drawn into this aesthetic and appealing mold, only to encounter images which are difficult to look at.

Aya Ben Ron Clastic
Even the most casual glance at Aya Ben Ron’s recent project, Clastic, sets into motion the mechanisms of fascination and horror that pulls viewers into its beautiful, complex and contradictory surface.

Angela de la Cruz Self Clutter
As the artist observes: 'the moment I cut through the canvas I get rid of the grandiosity of painting'. The processes of cutting, patching up, fitting back together, re-assembling are central to de la Cruz’s practice.

Laura Bruce DangerPony
The music project is an edition of 50 picture vinyl disks, each printed with 2 drawings by Laura Bruce. Each vinyl disk comes along with an original hand drawing by the artist.

David Falconer Litter
Litter is an object of 1 or 2 balls of new-born mice babies. They are hairless with closed eyes. They are very foetus-like. Together, a mouse's babies is called a litter, Hence the title: "Litter", also means rubbish or garbage.

David Falconer Pellet
The super-hermetic shrink-wrapped "universal subject" is the refuge of uber-reason, an ossified structure, fortified against digestive attack; made allergic to difference and alterity by the Kant-God program.

Noel Jabbour Maria Magdalena
In this series, Jabbour uses her own body as a vehicle for self-expression. Posing as Mary Magdalene, both a sinner and a repentant, the artist Evokes both sensuality and innocence, lost on the verge of discovery and self-discovery.

I. Kabakov & M. Grobman The Beautiful Sixties
All of us, including Yakovlev, went to Kabakov. We looked at his objects, llya told us of his ideas. Indjikh said that what Kabakov is doing, American artists are only about to begin, and that he has gone far ahead of them.

MK Kaehne No More Reality
We continuously try to deal with reality in order to survive (which is very stressful). At the same time we also feel constantly insecure because we live with the invariable idea that we don't really know what reality is.

MK Kaehne Suit
The object 'Suit' is based on a combination of the business suit uniform and the army uniform pouch vest. This overlapping of two different worlds creates an absurd mobile home for the daily survival in contemporary life.

Sally Krysztal Kramberg Pincemi et Pincemoi
Pincemi et Pincemoi sat in a boat. Pincemi drowned, who remained? A common game of words adopted by children all over the world. The rules are clear, the one to whom it is applied answers as if there is nothing to it and gets pinched.

Shay Kun A Shell of a Man
The hank of human hair separated from its natural context appears on the colorful tub stoppers and brings us back to those seldom moments when we realize that we are not the ones to blame.

Shay Kun Homeland Lessons
This project consists of 10 original works and encompasses a flair for the nostalgic, forceful and immanent ‘backyard’ of the typical Israeli atmosphere, ultimately subverting Pop Culture, internet clip-art and accessing latent issues.

Michal Levy One
This is a machine-city that functions at the fervent rhythm of cylinders, maintaining a quasi- "organized chaos". Amidst the city's dull hustle and bustle two structures aspire to detach themselves from the rest.

Ohad Meromi Screen and Totem
Screen and Totem speaks of the place it occupies. It reflects and screens it; it projects on it and is projected by it; it interferes with the space by dividing it; it creates a place, a new one.

Philip Rantzer Feet up
Feet Up opens a window to the world of the absurd that Philip Rantzer creates in his art. Rantzer alienates a mundane every-day object. He dissociates the object from its familiar context and relocates it in space.

Masha Rubin Knitting Fate
...women weave the fate of their loved ones, preserve their lives and dictate their natures. While knitting, the woman draws into herself, engaging in the intimate creation of every detail and every loop..

Yehudit Sasportas Fans
The choice of an object such as a fan has challenged Sasportas in terms of form as well as content, leading her to different artistic choices than those that regularly characterize her work.

Jane Simpson The Fine Art of Conversation
Is a kind of testament to a time gone past. To a more formal time, when time stood still for tea, it oiled the social machine. To a time when conversation was a skill learnt, and practised. Like a game of bridge, it was a game.

Amikam Toren Home Country Home
Toren's hostile intervention in the smug bourgeois painting as-it-were shook up its essence and created a strange friction between its flat painterly language and the new three-dimensional language.

Igael Tumarkin Hanoch Levin
The Citizen Levin, poet of the marvelous ugliness, has brought forth the Israeli-Jewish repulsiveness to a top artistic degree, to a formative and poetical perfection.
