Waiting Room

Saturday, 21.2.2015 until 2.5.2015

Artist: Eden Bannet
Curator:

“Waiting Room,” Eden Bannet’s new solo exhibition at the Jerusalem Artists’ House, presents works on paper and sculptural gestures in space. The exhibition investigates tangible forms and abstract concepts associated with waiting, through the prism of the artist’s ongoing research project in recent years: roaming urban spaces and industrial zones, collecting raw materials and scraps, capturing on camera transitory compositions, and assembling hybrid constellations through experimentation at the studio.

Alongside two-dimensional works outlining liminal states of consciousness, the exhibition space also accommodates sculptural structures that point towards the poses of the body in waiting – rest, sitting, delay, anticipation, laxity, alertness, absorption, balance, tension, filtering, draining. Together they amount to nuanced transformations between images and things, urban life and abstract forces, useful items and objects of contemplation.

Jerusalem Artists’ House

The Jerusalem Artists House is situated in a historic building that once housed "The Bezalel School of Arts and Crafts," founded by Boris Schatz in 1906, today the current Bezalel Academy for Arts and Design. For a time the building housed the Bezalel National Museum, precursor of The Israel Museum, Jerusalem. When the Israel Museum was opened, the collections of the Bezalel National Museum were transferred to it, where they formed the initial core collection of the Museum. Since 1965, the House has served as home to the Association for Jerusalem Artists. In this capacity, the House has become a dynamic center for exhibitions, displaying unique and varied works of both Israeli and international artists. The annual exhibition plan includes a series focusing on prominent young artists exhibiting their works for the first time, as well as a series of retrospective works by veteran artists. In addition, the Artists House displays group exhibitions on a wide range of subjects, joint presentations between Israeli and international artists, as well as a variety of other activities.
