Gallery Talk for the Group Exhibition: The Gaze and the Empty Spot

The group exhibition The Gaze and the Empty Spot, on display at Al HaTzuf Gallery, features fifteen artists, students of Eli Shamir’s studio, who come from all over the country to Kfar Yehoshua and share a tradition of sustained observation and Eli Shamir’s teaching philosophy. During the gallery talk, Eli will present his teaching principles, and the artists will discuss their work processes in Eli’s studio and in general, materials and techniques, and works that engage with themes of local identity, immigration, connection to the land and nature, and significant figures in the artists’ lives.

In attendance: artist Eli Shamir and the studio artists.
