“God willing – the worldwide contemporary spiritual awakening is finally attacking us too, and the art exhibition in front of us is one of the expressions of that.” This quote appears in the main text of the catalog of the art exhibition “Heshon Nefesh”, curated by Dafna Naor, and with the participation of 43 artists, presented at HiTouch in Herzliya Pituach in 2009. The text was written by Marianna Ruah-Midbar.
One of the art works was computerized music designed for the space of the exhibition, which changed according to the movement of the visitors in the hall, created by Omri Ruah Midbar.
In the gallery below one can also see photos of some of the art works in the exhibition.
Excerpts from the text in the essay are available in the Hebrew version of this page – here.
