The Sad Story of Ya Ya

17.10.13 - 1.12.13

Artist: Amir Polak
Curator: Itamar weiner

The Sad Story of Ya Ya is an adventure tale of a girl, a skeleton and a rabbit, and something that went wrong.

The modern spectator holds a host of information and basic assumptions concerning the way physical rules or their absence affect animated heroes and their abilities. It creates a special framework within which we accept as a given the status of the “heroes” as companions of the real world.

Every week, Ya Ya recounts the devastating developments that led to the tragic end of her story. She confronts the taboo of maintaining the perfection of the body as it appears in Disney’s traditional animations. Under the cover of a story which is “only drawn”, Ya Ya can deal with death, life, and fate, and with the question of why things are the way they are and one cannot change

them. Only one question remains open: what was the color of her eyes?

Uganda

 

Uganda was established in Jerusalem in May 2005. Our aim is to create something not yet found in Israel: a combination of a bar / café / live music venue, and specialist records / comics store. Uganda imports 12 records, LP's, DVD's, CD's, and graphic novels from Europe and the US on a monthly basis. We also have a big selection of “home grown” music, fanzines and comics from local Israeli labels and publishers. The shop, located in the center of Jerusalem (hidden in a small alley), hosts live gigs, DJ sets, and exhibitions by local Israeli artists.
