Menashe Kadishman was one of Israe's most celebrated artists, whose works enjoyed an excellent international reputation. Exhibitions in his homeland, in the United States, in many European countries and recently also in Japan, China and Thailand have been showing his opus time and again and

convincingly ever since the sixties. Participation in several editions of theVenice Biennale and the Kassel Documenta demonstrate the innovative strength he applied to combining art with nature. His works were owned by many museums all over the world and by several private collectors.

Kadishman was born in Tel Aviv in 1932. His father died when he was 15, and he left school to help provide for the family. In 1950 he served with the IDF Nahal infantry brigade, and as part of his service herded sheep at Kibbutz Ma'ayan Baruch and Kibbutz Yizrael.

Herding was Kadishman's first encounter with what was to become the most central motif of his art – sheep.

After his military service, Kadishman studied sculpting with Moshe Sternschuss and Rudi Lehmann at Ein Hod. In 1959 he went to London and attended Saint Martin's School of Art.

Kadishman spent 12 years in London, where he also married and where his children were born.

His early work was characterized by a modernistic style. In the 1960s he was close to artists such as Andy Warhol, Robert Rauschenberg and Christo, and enjoyed a flourishing international career.

Menashe Kadishman / Biography

From 1947 to 1950, Kadishman studied with the Israeli sculptor Moshe Sternschuss at the Avni Institute of Art and Design in Tel Aviv, and in 1954 with the Israeli sculptor Rudi Lehmann in Jerusalem.

In 1959, he moved to London, where he attended Saint Martin's School of Art and the Slade School of Art. During 1959 and 1960 he also studied with Anthony Caro and Reg Butler. He remained here until 1972; he had his first one-man show there in 1965 at the Grosvenor Gallery.

His sculptures of the 1960s were Minimalist in style, and so designed as to appear to defy gravity. This was achieved either through careful balance and construction, as in Suspense (1966), or by using glass and metal so that the metal appeared unsupported, as in Segments (1968). The glass allowed the environment to be part

of the work. Kadishman lived and created in his house in the city center of Tel Aviv. Kadishman was divorced, has 2 children. His son, Ben, is also a painter and

his daughter, Maya Kadishman is an actress and married to the artists, Eran Shakine.

On May 8, 2015 Kadishman died after he was hospitalized at Sheba Medical Center in Tel Hashomer.

In his youth, between 1950 and 1953, Kadishman worked as a shepherd on Kibbutz Ma'ayan Baruch. This experience with nature, sheep and shepherding had a significant impact on his later artistic work and career. The first major appearance of sheep in his work was in the 1978 Venice Biennale, where Kadishman presented a flock of colored live sheep as living art. In 1995, he began painting portraits of sheep by the hundreds, and even thousands, each one different from the next. These instantly-recognizable sheep portraits soon became his artistic "trademark".

Menashe Kadishman Installation Shalekhet – Fallen leaves

In the Jüdisches Museum, Berlin, 10 000 faces punched out of steel are distributed on the ground of the “Memory Void,” the only “voided” space of the Libeskind Building that can be entered. Israeli artist Menashe Kadishman dedicated his artwork not only to Jews killed during the Shoah, but to all victims of violence and war. Visitors are invited to walk on the faces and listen to the sounds created by the metal sheets, as they clang and rattle against one another.

THIS PLACE is a monumental artistic endeavor initiated by photographer Frederic Brenner, who believes that only through the eyes of great artists can we begin to understand the complexities of Israel—its history, its geography, its inhabitants, its daily life—and the resonance it has for people around the world.Inspired by historical models that gathered artists to ask essential questions about culture, society and individuals, including the Mission Héliographique in 19th-century France and the Farm Security Administration in the United States,

Brenner first conceived the idea for the project in 2006. After seeking the advice of a group of international curators, he invited eleven acclaimed photographers to join him in exploring Israel and the West Bank as both place and metaphor.The 12 photographers participating in This Place are Wendy Ewald, Martin Kollar, Josef Koudelka, Jungjin Lee, Gilles Peress, Fazal Sheikh, Stephen Shore, Rosalind Solomon, Thomas Struth, Jeff Wall, Nick Waplington, and Frederic Brenner himself. Together, this group represents one of the most original and distinguished collections

of artists to ever collaborate on a project, and it is certainly the most acclaimed group of photographers to ever turn their attention to Israel and the West Bank.Each photographer spent approximately six months in residence, pursuing his or her own artistic interests. Through these residencies, which stretched over four years (2009 to 2013), thousands of original art works were created. These images combine to create not a single, monolithic vision, but rather a diverse and fragmented portrait, alive with all the rifts and paradoxes

of this important and highly contested place.Now a major traveling exhibition, the show is curated by Charlotte Cotton, an internationally recognized curator and former head of the photography department at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA). The first show opened in Prague at the DOX Centre for Contemporary Art in October, 2014. This Place next travels to the Tel Aviv Museum of Art. In the fall of 2015, the exhibition will come to the United States, where it will be on view at the Norton Museum of Art and close at the Brooklyn Museum

Musrara MixThe MusraraMix Festival is an international multidisciplinary event that takes place in the borderline neighborhood of Musrara, initiated and produced by the Naggar School of Art, Musrara. The festival is a hub of artistic and social happenings, embodying the political and cultural essence of Jerusalem and Israel. Every year the festival is based around one theme. The 15th year of the festival is the year of Art-sistence.The festival expresses the school’s outlook. We believe in the significant role the creative process has, when it turns our gaze onto society and the identities that structure it. We believe in the power the festival has, as part of the educational process of the students. The Naggar School of Art, Musrara, invites the public to participate in the events taking place during the festival, to experience the neighborhood, explore its streets, be a guest in the backyards, meet the residents and enjoy some of the best multidisciplinary made in Israel and the world today. We would like to thank our partners: firstly the residents of Musrara, the public funds and organizations from Israel and abroad that sponsor our activity, and of course our students, teachers and school staff.


Art-sistenceNow that we have reached the middle of the second decade of the 21st century, it is a good time to ask ourselves: Have we really changed? Has our environment changed? What kind of world are we living in? Where are we going? How will things look in a hundred years from now?We live in a time of global instability, which expresses itself as anxiety flowing through the veins of our existence. Wars, disasters, and economic crises are translated into threatening images which paint our experience of the world in murky shades that obscure our ability to look clearly into the future.The Musrara Mix Festival offers a look at the world through the concept of “art-sistence”.Human subjectivity, or what we call existence, involves a continuous process which projects itself onto the world and onto the future. Human consciousness is not an inner world of thoughts and images, but rather is a process that projects outwards, or our so-called “ek-sistence”.Images, therefore, are what make the world perceptible. Yet, from the moment the images become mediators, they separate us from the world. Instead of being our map of reality, they become a screen

(Vilém Flusser). Artistic creativity is recreated and charged with significance and with a halo which gradually fades with the invention of technical images.Art-sistence suggests viewing our ongoing existential crisis as a kind of opportunity for growth and change, a place and time in which art can offer an alternative, in which fantasy

can become reality and prevailing paradigms can shift. For example, the dichotomy that exists between technology and emotion dissolves in the works of contemporary artists who find ways to use technology that inspire empathy with others. Some groups of artists are finding ways to create a more friendly urban space, a place where residents are able to change and influence the appearance of their environment and the relationships between the residents of the community.

Hila Amram / REGRESSIVE EVOLUTION


Art-sistence is a consistent action in which the dynamics of change, as well as the changes themselves, create an alternation of actions and a continuity, like living cells that differentiate, are replaced and renewed.At the festival, we will be presenting art that takes place in the physical space, while being realized in a symbolic and emotional space, in a deeply inquisitive and experimental spirit that finds expression both in traditional exhibition spaces, as well as in the public domain.The exhibition will feature works relating to the surrounding environment, residential areas, urban life, and globalization, together with works that offer a look inward, at the body, at physicality, emotion and basic human existence.The works will further reveal themselves and transform in the consciousness of observers through direct dialogue and meetings with the artists who will be present alongside their works.This year's festival will continue introducing new media works that use the most advanced technological means available in the market, along with performance pieces that use the human body, or installations that use

recycled everyday materials.In keeping with concepts that seeks to blur boundaries, we will further strengthen the connection between the visual arts and music, while creating a diffusion in which music performances will occur in art spaces

and will engage in dialogue with the works on display.

IMAGINERY PORTRAITS ------------ Loretta Lux


BLOCKS ---------Ronen Sharabani9 HaAyin Het St., The Façade of Musrara- Main buildingExhibitionOver the past year, the artist worked on modeling three-dimensional structures based on homes located throughout the Musrara neighborhood.

Against the backdrop of a tense situation, where building zones are carefully accounted for, labeled and documented (from both national-political and socioeconomic perspectives), the aesthetic collage-like quality of the landscape distracts us from the actual complexity of its daily reality.

When looking upon the crowded buildings from a distance, we feel as though we are beckoned by the picturesque view or by a kind of shiny object. However, this image of a homogeneous object begins to deteriorate as we draw ever closer to it, to the point that it loses its identity as a "neighborhood" and we are finally confronted with individual structures. The distance which marks the turning point where the individual structures begin to be discerned from the group, where the structures demand individual attention, is the focus of this work. The conflict is expressed by the sudden moment when the buildings are seen as playing dice, mixed up until a new situation is reconstructed from the old.

The work attempts to break down the typical structure of the city/village and, instead, to simulate a new non-functional structure and observe it from a neutral perspective. The facade of Musrara is the stage chosen for demonstrating the shift between different realities, breaking the rules, and moving between one perspective to another.

REGRESSIVE EVOLUTION

--------------

Hila Amram22 Shivtei Israel St. , Canada House, Third Floor, The Social GalleryExhibitionAmram’s objects appear to be ready-made hybrids, abounding in internal contradictions - rare mutations, which are amusing, irrational and at the same time subtle and graceful.

They may perhaps be seen as unexpected scientific mishaps, the products of experiments conducted in a home laboratory.

EXHIBITIONS


REACTION FORMATION-----------------------Ora Lev9 HaAyin Het St., Musrara- Main Building, First FloorExhibitionThis work deals with collected pieces of memories reshaped in time, rhythm, and order of occurrence, to fit a naïve daydream narrative of nature and existence.These pieces, detached from a time continuum, heal the dystopia of the normal time-realm sequence. Videos in reverse depict a chopped down tree re-erected and revived, captured birds freed, and the momentary touch of a butterfly on a hand prolonged forever.These scenes reflect actions as emotionally charged reactions in our memory, which attempt to create a better, alternate narrative to the simple chronological transcript of life.

EXHIBITIONS


EXHIBITIONSIMAGINERY PORTRAITS ------------Loretta Lux9 HaAyin Het St., Musrara- Main Building, The New GalleryExhibitionLoretta Lux’s photographic portraits of children have gained her much recognition and appreciation, first and foremost, due to her ability to create a new world and present us with a point of view that challenges the usual ways in which we understand and perceive children.The empathy we normally feel towards children suddenly changes when our eyes discover a different kind of childishness that is strange, mysterious and, at times, full of tension. The subjects have names and are identified, yet they also lack identity. Looking at “Loretta’s children” does not awaken our childhood memories, rather we are drawn into a tense and cold world.Loretta Lux’s work demonstrates both her impressive technical use of photography as well as her deep awareness of the history of portrait painting. Through her processed photographic images, bound to produce a “genotechnical” change, Lux creates a new kind of expression in which the vitality and childish joy of her portrait subjects take on a strangely sugary sweet doll-like quality that arouses anxiety and concern.curator:Avi Sabag


EXHIBITIONSFREEDOM& INDEPENDENCE --------------Bjørn Melhus9 HaAyin Het St., Musrara- Main Building, First FloorExhibitionFREEDOM & INDEPENDENCE by Bjørn Melhus questions the global ideological paradigm shift to new forms of religious capitalism by juxtaposing the ideas of self-proclaimed objectivist philosopher and novelist Ayn Rand with the evangelical themes in US-American mainstream movies. This contemporary fairy tale, in which Melhus performs all the main characters himself, was partly shot in a Berlin morgue and partly in new urban environments in Istanbul. In a tour de force that oscillates between musical, comedy, horror film and fairy tale, this high-definition trip digs deep into our collective psyche, bringing up stored conceptions of promises of salvation, childhood trauma, and the deeply ingrained work ethic under the imperative of self-optimization.

9 HaAyin Het St., Musrara- Main Building, The BackyardExhibitionThis work includes tutorial videos on different practical methods of ecological productivity in the city. Each video describes the various stages, from the preparation to the execution of a particular action. The videos demonstrate the identification of a need, a challenge or a desire to create within the urban space. Often the addition is hardly felt, yet it creates a new microclimate, emphasizing the efficient use of available resources and providing a new perspective on the place.Through the practices of recycling, DIY, "urban acupuncture", and visual interpretation in various media, useful knowledge in the field of sustainability and urban agriculture is made accessible. This also enables the person to connect to the agricultural space. These spaces allow for new kinds of connections and experiences in the city, as part of a conscious process towards “healthy cities” that allow vegetation to benefit the residents and the environment.This work attempts to restore ecological productivity as a tool for individuals in an era overwhelmed with information that is often, to some extent, at the expense of

the consumer.*ONYA brings together designers, planners and environmentalists who are working to integrate elements of nature into the city for the benefit of the community. In the past year, they have been doing work at the New Central Bus Station in Tel Aviv and its environs. They conduct technological architectural and artistic experiments, addressing various interpretations of the meaning of nature in the city, alongside their “guerrilla” activities, community workshops, and laboratory for urban ecology.

EXHIBITIONSHALF-LINE ----------- Eli Keszler22 Shivtei Israel St. , Canada House, Third Floor, Musrara CampusExhibitionAudiences today are accustomed to a new paradigm of non-linear spaces where listening and viewing experiences are variable, fragmented and fractured. The input and output of viewing and producing media are intertwined. This new receptive situation has prompted the artist to reevaluate the process of notation, composition and use of 'musical objects' in his installations.Using simple, elemental physical materials, his work subverts electronic sound and activates metals, wood, piano wire and industrial plastics through mechanical systems. The production of raw sound clashes between mechanical and physical energy, honing in on the point where primitive and undiluted sound intersects with detailed geometry and physical computing.His work examines the intersections of large-scale installation, architectural environments, musical performance and social dynamics.In his works, networks and systems replace and visually obstruct the viewers’ conception of sound source beyond recognition. Puncturing and distorting narrative with musical mediation, these constructed environments seek to challenge and redefine normative social dynamics.His installations function on their own as stand-alone pieces, as well as the setting for his performance.

Among a hundred paintings, you could recognize mine,my goal was:

"Do not copy. Create a new style, ...colors light and bright,

return to elegance in my models."

Tamara de LempickaWhen someone mentions the Roaring Twenties, it conjures up the Jazz Age, flappers, Prohibition, the Charleston, gangsters, The Great Gatsby, Mary Pickford, and F. Scott Fitzgerald.

Designers and architects also remember the 20's for the Chrysler Building, the luxury liner Normandie, and the interior of Radio City Music Hall, all outstanding examples of the decorative arts style called Art Deco. To many designers of jewelry, furniture, clothes, fabrics, and ceramics, Art Deco of the 20's with its geometric motifs and bright, bold colors represents the best and purest forms of that decorative art period.

Art Deco, a classical, symmetrical, rectilinear style that reached its high point between 1925-1935, drew its inspiration from such serious art movements as Cubism, Futurism, and the influence of the Bauhaus. In Paris, it was a dominant art form of the 1920-1930 period.

Of all the artists pursuing the style "Arts Decoratifs", one of the most memorable was Tamara de Lempicka.

She was born Maria Gorska of

well-to-do parents in turn-of- the-century Poland. After her mother and father divorced, her wealthy grandmother spoiled her with clothes and travel.

By age 14 she was attending school in Lausanne, Switzerland. Tamara vacationed in St. Petersburg with her Aunt Stephanie, whose millionaire banker husband had their home decorated by the famous French firm Maison Jansen.

All this high living gave the young girl an idea of how she wanted to live and what her future should be.

Soon after Russia and Germany declared war in 1914, she fell in love with the most handsome bachelor in Warsaw, a lawyer named Taduesz Lempicki.

She set her sights on him and two years later they were married in fashionable St. Petersburg. Her banker uncle provided the dowry, and Lempicki, who had no money of his own, was delighted to marry this beautiful l6 year old girl.

A year later, Taduesz was arrested by the Bolsheviks, and Tamara braved the Russian Revolution to free him, using her good looks to charm favors from the necessary officials. The couple fled to Paris and that's where the story of Tamara de Lempicka's fantastic life really begins.

Now known as Tamara de Lempicka, the refugee studied art and worked day and night. She became a well-known portrait painter with a distinctive Art Deco manner. Quintessentialy French, Deco was the part of an exotic, sexy, and glamorous Paris that epitomized Tamara's living and painting style.

Between the wars, she painted portraits of writers, entertainers, artists, scientists, industrialists, and many of Eastern Europe's exiled nobility. Her daughter, Kizette de Lempica-Foxhall wrote in her biograpy of Tamara De Lempica Passion By Design, "She painted them all, the rich, the successful, the renowned -- the best.

The work brought her critical acclaim, social celebrity and considerable wealth.


At the threat of a second World War, she left Paris for America. She went to Hollywood, to become the "Favorite Artist of the Hollywood Stars".

She and her second husband, Baron Raoul Kuffner, one of her earliest and wealthiest patrons, moved into American film director King Vidor's former house in Beverly Hills.

The Baron and Tamara moved to New York City in 1943, to a stunning apartment at 322 East 57th Street, in whose two-story north light studio she continued painting in the old style for another year or two. Tamara decorated the apartment with the


antiques she and the Baron had rescued from his Hungarian estate.

When the war was over, she reopened her famous Paris studio in the rue Mechain, redecorated in rococo style.

Friends then asked her to decorate apartments in New York City with her individual touch. After the Baron's death in 1962, she moved to Houston to be near her daughter Kizette. She began painting with a palette knife, much in vogue at the time. The Iolas Gallery in New York exhibited her newest and latest paintings in 1962, but the critics were indifferent, there were not many buyers, and she swore to herself that she would never exhibit again.

The advent of Abstract Expressionism and her advancing age halted her career in the 1950's and 1960's. Somewhat forgotten, her work ignored, she continued to paint, storing her canvases, new and old, in an attic and a warehouse.

In 1966, the Musee des Arts Decoratifs mounted a commemorative exhibition in Paris called "Les Annees '25". Its success created the first serious interest in Art Deco.

This inspired a young man named

Alain Blondel to open the Galerie du Luxembourg and launch a major retrospective of Tamara de Lempicka.

It was a revelation in the art world and was to have been followed by an exhibition at the Knoedler Gallery in New York City but Tamara, ever imperious, made too many demands on how the exhibit was to be mounted, and the curator at Knoedler walked away. Gradually, as Art Deco and figurative painting came into favor again, she was rediscovered by the art world .

Tamara de Lempicka, Andromeda (La schiava), 1929


In 1978 she moved to Mexico permanently, buying a beautiful house in Cuernavaca called Tres Bambus, built by a Japanese architect in a chic neighborhood. She despaired of growing old and in her last years sought the company of young people. She mourned at the loss of her beauty and was cantankerous to the end. Tamara de Lempicka died in her sleep on March 18, 1980 with her daughter Kizette at her side. Her wish to be cremated and have her ashes spread on the top of the volcano Popocatepetl was carried out.

Just Above the Waterline Artworks by

Bertrand FlachotWorks combining photography and drawing in which lines are drawn along the edges of images of Paris to represent the confluence of past and present, or as the title suggests, the meanders of memory that has flown out of

the banks of the Seine.

In nautical terminology, the waterline refers to the line separating the submerged section of the hull of a ship – the quickworks – from the section above water – the topsides (literally the “live” works and “dead” works in French). The works which Bertrand Flachot is presenting this autumn at the Felli Gallery are very much alive; they immerse us in the soft formal ambiguity which is the hallmark of his aesthetic world. Lines and strokes trace and highlight the meanders of the memory of areas which have been crossed in Paris, in a manner reminiscent of Giacometti’s Paris sans fin (Paris without end) to which he pays a passing tribute.This memory, as liquid as water, is the fluid guiding the graphic touch which releases the double etymological sediment of the word graphein – drawing and writing

– by dredging it up from the river bed. The title given by the artist to this new series of works therefore provides a string of clues about what flows out of all these images of the banks of the Seine. More specifically, they depict two journeys in time and space whose routes cross, overlap and mingle on the glossy surface of a sheet of paper, where the Seine – his very own river, whose banks fray like the fringes of memory – represents the confluence of past and present.

Bertrand Flachot tirelessly draws the present in order to try to rewrite the past, which went up in smoke one day in February 1990 when all his artwork was destroyed by a fire in his studio on the Quai de la Seine. All that remains of his work, and the route along the river associated with that period in his life, are mental images. However, far from becoming diffuse with the passage of time, they have allowed the artist to experience their mysterious survival



instinct, which is carefully illustrated in his work once again. Aby Warburg believed that pictures are ghosts capable of crossing the boundaries of time and space, thus explaining how they survive in our memories. Bertrand Flachot’s constant scanning of the photographic space therefore reveals the migration of mental images, those ghostly scratchings which continuously assume new shapes in the real world. We are aware that in life it is not enough to draw a line to clearly separate the living from the dead; the waterline is actually blurred, fleeting, mischievous and mobile. Art therefore only truly mirrors life if it makes us see and imagine interpenetration,

mutual inclusion, and the strange and enigmatic relationship between “living” and “dead” works – the quickworks and topsides – in the slipstream of our history.

Louis TreserrasFrench painter, sculptor and photographer Louis Treserras claims to be a self taught painter. For 30 years he has been painting young and mysterious nude female models. His rigorous approach to artistic composition would almost compare to a science, like mathematics. His style remains however poetic an intimist, with a very distinct and soft range of colors. A contemporary artist with a highly classical technique, characteristic of the uncompromissing self-taught artist. The looks, gestures and attitudes are all words we hear are deaf yet. Louis Treserras is a painter of his time, he explores his own emotions through his paintings. For nearly 30 years he painted nudes. Defining itself as a self-taught he has put his technical and almost mathematical approach to the body art of a deeply intimate and poetic. For him the artistic adventure began in childhood. In his paintings painted Treserras girls slender, a dreamer or faint.
