A NEW AGE: THE SPIRITUAL IN ART“,
TEL AVIV MUSEUM OF ART , TEL AVIV
AUG 6, 2019 – FEB 2, 2020

HILMA AF KLINT AND EMMA KUNZ FEATURE IN THE EXHIBITION ALONGSIDE WORKS BY ARTISTS LIVING AND WORKING IN THE EARLY 21ST CENTURY: MARINA ABRAMOVIĆ, MUNTEAN/ROSENBLUM, FRIEDRICH KUNATH & ADAM RABINOWITZ, AND MAXIME ROSSI. EACH BODY OF WORKS IN THE EXHIBITION EXPRESSES THE EXISTENCE OF OTHER WORLDS, UNSEEN AND IMPERCEPTIBLE, AS WELL AS THE SENSATIONS AND SENSES THAT ALLOW US TO ACKNOWLEDGE THESE WORLDS. THE PRESENT-DAY WORKS REPRESENT A STANCE THAT IS NOT CYNICAL ABOUT THE FANTASTIC WORLD YET, BEING CONTEMPORARY, THEY ARE AWARE THAT THE SEARCH FOR SPIRITUALISM IS HELD AS PART OF A POPULAR-CONSUMER CULTURE WITHIN THE WESTERN COMFORT ZONE.
