Encounter at the exhibition Avi Sabah: Tends to be Forgotten (in Hebrew)

Encounter with the exhibition curator, Dalit Matatyahu

The exhibition Tends to be Forgotten focuses on four series of paintings, which crystallized in the last three years—a period rife with crises and disasters, during which artist Avi Sabah relocated to Portugal. Verging on the Atlantic Ocean, the new climatic space yields to the effects of the sea. In the summer, huge fires burn in the mountains, and in the winter, water condenses close to the surface and bubbles amid the rocks. The moist air cools quickly, and thick fog envelops the studio windows. These atmospheric temperaments have infiltrated the work processes and their subjects, significantly transforming them. Sabah's current work bears distinct scenic features, and the bold materiality has been replaced with the rules of the watery, diluted world.
