The morning after Rabin’s murder, Daniel Kiczales was late for school. The language teacher stood by the blackboard with tears in her eyes. For a change, she allowed him in.
Almost 30 years later, Kiczales returns to Rabin’s figure to enter another space. A space in which a vocal ceremony for a male choir takes place that combines episodes from the country’s history, words of rebuke and moments of prophecy.
About the gallery
The Tea House is a new space dedicated to sound based-projects, launched in March 2022 as a collaboration between the Hansen House Center for Design, Media and Technology, and Mamuta Art & Media Center. In early 2021, in a complex effort, the Tea House’s building was transferred to the Hansen House’s courtyard from Villa Sherover, which was a symbol of Jerusalem’s prestigious neighborhood, Talbieh. The sound gallery opening in the Tea House is established as a platform for artists creating contemporary music and sound-based works in Jerusalem, and in Israel. The gallery’s exhibition program includes five sound installations per year, alongside additional projects designed for this unique space.
