The House is in the Book: Gallery Talk

This exhibition brings together artists’ books by Andi Arnovitz (Israel), Lynne Avadenka (USA), and Mirta Kupferminc (Argentina). Its centerpiece is a new collaborative book created during lockdown. Employing a shared repertoire of images developed through virtual communication, each artist worked alone in her studio, addressing collective experiences of loss and isolation. The resulting book explores reconceived notions of private, civic, and global space as they are refracted through the medium of books, and inspired by “four cubits,” the Jewish concept of personal space. The book’s imagery subsequently served as the basis for a work of video art.
