The meaning of art – exhibition and talk (Jerusalem, Israel)
Exhibition of two artists, members of New Acropolis Israel branch. A colorful evening thanks to the fine works of art which were exhibited. The evening began with a walk throughout the exhibition followed by a short talk by the artists in which they discussed their personal and artistic process in creating art. They shared their thoughts regarding questions such as: what brings an artist to create? What is expected of an artist in society today? What is the inner process that can be provoked through the artistic medium?
After their short talk, we gathered together for an open discussion dealing with subjects such as : what is the role of art in our culture today? What could it and should it convey? What are the philosophical tools that can be practiced by walking the “artist’s path”?
It was an extremely enriching and productive evening.
