Last week I (finally) discovered the oh so anticipated new building of the Tate Modern, which opened to the public on June 17. Under the slogan “Art Changes We Change”, the museum managed its transformation very successfully and convinced the skeptics of the need for an extension in order to reach this ideal of an ultimate…

It’s been a month I didn’t post any new content on the blog. I “unplugged” myself and it felt strangely good even though every time I was discovering something new I couldn’t help it to format a potential article in my head. I’m leaving Tel Aviv in less than a week, so it was very important…

July is almost over, and I must say that I’m pretty impressed by the quality of the exhibitions this summer. Don’t you have that feeling sometimes that some galleries are just throwing together some pieces of their collection to “create” an exhibition over the summer without any curatorial considerations?

The Museum of Bat Yam a.k.a. the MoBY has a beautiful and quiet iconic venue (a perfect mix of brutalism and modernism architecture), something you will almost not expect from a small town museum. Today I’m meeting Elad Rosen, the curator of MoBY’s newest exhibition “Mini Golf Bat Yam“. Rosen, who is also an artist,…

Last Friday I finally had the chance to go see some exhibitions after a forced break (that felt like forever). I recommend the group show “Shibboleth” that is currently in view at the Dvir Gallery, and will be on during the whole summer. They present few really strong pieces by artists such as Simon Fujiwara, Dor Guez or Mircea Cantor.…

It’s been a long time since we had our last stop in Brussels. Even though Tel Aviv is keeping me quiet busy, Brussels is always on my mind and it’s about time that we take another arty walk in this buzzing city. Your many emails regarding the three first parts of this projects were a…

June already started with some great art shows in Tel Aviv, but more is about to come. I wanted to share with you some exhibitions to attend during this month, because summer is not only about beaching, drinking ice coffee, and endless night chilling on your friends’s rooftop (or is it?). Art and culture should…

A couple of weeks ago I finally discovered in the flesh Gideon Rubin’s paintings. It was love at first sight. The Israeli born artist who is now living and working in London, easily captured my intention with his anonymous figures inspired from old Chinese magazines : “During my recent residency at the ‘Da Wang Cultural…
