Unique encounters following the exhibition Material Imagination / Tower & Box (in Hebrew)

Unique encounters with the museum's curators will offer different readings of the collection display.

Tel Aviv Museum of Art is pleased to present the new permanent exhibition of its Israeli art collection – Material Imagination. Departing from the usual chronological presentation of Israeli art as part of the national narrative, the exhibition is organized around the four elements: earth, water, air, and fire. It invites visitors to cast a more attentive look at the art created here from the early 1900s to the present day, by highlighting various periods, illuminating forgotten or repressed areas, and offering a renewed reading of the story of Israeli art.

Tower & Box / Adi Dahan, Assistant Curator of Israeli Art
At the heart of Jewish morality tales there is often an architectural structure of some sort that is a conduit for redemption, or destruction: a box, a tower, a temple, or an altar. This tour will be devoted to the building blocks of Jewish thought as reflected in selected works in the Israeli Collection.
