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.

Every time I leave an exhibition I promised myself to write about it as soon as I get home. Even if it’s short, even if it’s just my modest thoughts and opinions, but most of the time I end up procrastinating. Sometimes I wish that I was running a food or fashion blog, talking about…

I’m a blogger who loves bloggers. Especially the ones who brings their personal touch to the blogosphere, and share with their readers more than a umpteenth picture of their breakfast. I virtually met Victoria few months ago through Instagram. I was working at Art Brussels, and as the good instagrammer addict (junkie?) than I’m, I was…

Is it the usual hipsterish crowd wearing is consensual uniform that makes you feel like you are not belonging there ? The knowledge and the prestige of some of the guests attending? Not having…

I was at the Sommer Gallery last week to discover Naama Arad’s exhibition, when I was delighted to see a piece of Guy Zagursky‘s artwork. “No Lifeguard on Duty” says the neon sign, reminding me the title of his previous show that I unfortunately missed. Zagursky is an Israeli artist who was born in 1972,…

Few weeks ago I decided to post on the blog a visual diary of some of Guy Criden’s artworks. I didn’t know much about the Israeli artist, I just knew that I felt connected to its art.

It is no hidden secret that the art world looks inwardly for inspiration. Yves Saint Laurent’s 1965 collection was inspired by Mondrian, Kandinsky’s ‘Composition 8’ was inspired by Wagner’s ‘Lohengrin’, and uber designer Tom Ford turned Christopher Isherwood’s novel ‘A Single Man’ (2009) into an elegant and poignant award-winning film.
