"Stop Button" featuring Liat Cohen, Anat Atzmon, and Hanan Yuval

Stop Button

A multidisciplinary artistic encounter in which music, poetry, video art, and painting intertwine to create a single, intimate, and powerful experience.

Liat Cohen and Anat Atzmon create a dialogue between the human voice and guitar strings. Joining the encounter is a visual language in which Bar Weisburd’s paintings, video segments, and movement take on new meaning and become an inseparable part of the work. From the sweeping rhythms of flamenco to the gentle whisper of guitar strings, all the elements of the performance echo one another, creating an original, sensitive, and precise stage choreography.

Perhaps, if only for a brief hour, the performance itself is that same Stop Button—a space where time slows its course, and sound, word, image, and memory are truly given the chance to be heard and seen.

Guest artist: Singer-songwriter Hanan Yovel, who composed the song “Stop Button” to lyrics by Bar Weisburd.
