Opening of “Hao jiu bu jian”: Irit Tamari solo exhibition
| Irit Tamari‘s first solo exhibition in Beijing is called “Hao jiu bu jian le” and is Chinese for “Long time no see”. In the exhibition, Tamari (born 1976, in Kibbutz Tzora, Israel) will exhibit a series of photographs taken in Israel as a reflection of her four years in Beijing. In 2005 Tamari and her husband embarked on an adventure and moved to China. Leaving behind her blooming artistic career as an Israeli young artist, she went – armed with a camera and a pair of scissors. Photographing became an essential way of living for her; She started cutting her own photographs, allowing her hands to re-build small models of imaginary worlds which only exist in another dimension. Then she re-photographed her models on a large scale, creating a new documented ‘scene’. |
