Catalogue Essay
Further exploring the relationship between art and reality, the Israeli Pavilion, Sun Stand Still, by artist Gal Weinstein and curator Tami Katz-Freiman critically addresses contemporary Isreali politics while examining mythological and romantic images embedded in Israel’s collective memory. This very notion is echoed in Petra, 2011, which masterfully conveys the historical and archaeological city of Petra from wool and plywood.
