'The Home' Exhibition

 

The ‘Home’ exhibition (link to the works in the exhibition) which opened this week at the 1of135 gallery offers a contemporary, personal and multi-layered look at the concept of ‘the home’ -  guarding, longing, presence and absence. 
A group exhibition, serving as a stage for the gallery’s creators in a variety of techniques - painting, illustration, photography, textile  and industrial design. 
 
Precisely in days of significant challenges, the ‘Home’ exhibition provides a stage for the gallery’s creators for free expression, responsive and inspiring to the events of the period. It is amazing to take in a rich mosaic of interpretations that the artists provided for the concept of ‘the home’, some of which touch on the Israeli reality after October 7th and some personal or abstract, offering an optimistic point of view and hope.  
“For me, every work is a glimpse into a room in memory - some of the works are bathed in soft light, others are full of fragments. Longing is evident, and in some even hope. Maybe it’s the home that is no more, the home we dreamed of, or one we didn’t realize we had. A home to leave and to return to – and hopefully soon.” adds Irit.
More than 20 of the gallery’s artists are presented in the exhibition, among them:  Gabi Zaltzman, Gila Greenfield, Jewboy (Yaron Shin), Galit Deutsch, Hamutal Yaakobovich, Yotam Schwartz, Yaara Rabinovich, Tal Ido, Tal Paz-Fridman, Meirco (Meir Cohen), Nona Keren, Nirit Ovadia, Ada Yoels, Omri Taub, Roni Almagor, Roi Nitzan,  Kate Priselis, Karin Yankort, Ran Slavin, Shaul Cohen, Shunit Falko-Zaritsky, Shlomi Shiloni, Tami Bar-Shai, Tamar Branitzky and Irit Hayon.
