They are all around us. We don’t have to search for them. They are seen through the window, at construction sites, in closets; flowers on the table, books, flower pots. The objects around us are the themes that Lilian Klapische paints and draws with rare sensitivity and cultural awareness. I would define it as “cultural painting.”
In her 1996 exhibition at the Jerusalem Print Workshop, Klapische, after much deliberation and reflection, also decided to focus on the physical existence of objects. From within her spiritual-artistic world, she created at the time a series of minimalistic and ascetic etchings, which is displayed in full in the current exhibition.
