Nulobaz Cooperative Art Space
Tel Aviv, Israel
Three artists from Nulobaz gallery are joining in the spirit of Josef Kowner (b.1895), a prolific painter who survived the holocaust and after the war immigrated to Sweden. He continued making art in Kalmar until his death in 1967. Each artist will be dealing with their personal take on the subject of immigration as well as estrangement. Avi Levin is a photographer who examines the Israeli society and its multi layered character. He focuses on immigration and the dreams behind it. Rakefet Viner Omer is a feminist, interdisciplinary, bad painting painter. Her feverish artistic world looks upon human whims with an amused, forgiving air. Elyasaf Kowner is a multidisciplinary artist who specializes in painting and video art. He often focuses on transformation. Josef Kowner was his great uncle.
