Variations
on Cultural Icons I
This work, which took place in Jerusalem streets towards
the last Prime Minister elections, set up an alternative
candidate to the elections while making use of the political
propaganda language: the Yiddish writer Schalom Aleichem,
whose name has several meanings ("Peace on you",
"Goodbye to you"…) |

Objects that are neglected in the day-to-day life were
disconnected from their natural context in order to find
their new place at the side of the Yiddish writer Shalom
Aleichem. The exhibition reconstructs these very objects
and the cultural icon and sets them back in the center
of the actual dialogue. The exhibition by itself quotes
the Work Number 1. |
