What's Happening?
Two municipal galleries, The New Gallery-Artists’ Studios Teddy and Hutzot Hayotzer, are presenting an exhibition titled 'The Secret of Forms' featuring the works of Israeli sculptor Israel Hadany. The exhibition, which runs from September to November 2025, offers free admission to the public. Hadany's art is known for its engagement with place, material, and time, and the exhibition aims to highlight his creative process and visitor experience rather than following a chronological order. The curators, Karavan-Cohen and Teimour, emphasize the challenge of presenting monumental, site-specific art within gallery spaces, focusing on the unique dialogue each piece embodies with its material and location.
Why It's Important?
The exhibition of Israel Hadany's sculptures is significant as it celebrates 55 years of his artistic contributions, offering insight into his creative process and the evolution of his work. By providing free access to the public, the galleries are promoting cultural engagement and appreciation for art, potentially inspiring new artists and fostering a deeper understanding of site-specific and material-focused art. This event also highlights the importance of preserving and showcasing artistic heritage, contributing to the cultural landscape and dialogue within the community.
