Edgar Orlaineta is curating and participating in Cafe Tschichold. Terms like arts, science, technique, poetry and music were terms that for Plato and his contemporaries had meanings that don’t adjust to their present day content. Our word for art, for example, is Latin (ars) and it is a translation of its Greek equivalent: technique (tecné). With tecné, as art, they designated not only poetry and music, which were associated with inspiration, but to those activities that implied some kind of specific dexterity and knowledge within a group of particular rules: the art of cooking, of navigating, but it also applied to painting or sculpture.

The exhibition will run from February 21 to March 18, 2010

www.mashrabiagallery.org
“Graduated in 1994, in the faculty of fine arts, university of Alexandria, Reem Hassan is a painter, drawer, video and installation artist, and more recently a performance artist. Her works inspire a kind of vigor that we so desperately lack in our daily life and in many contemporary art works. Reem’s paintings created between the years 2002 and 2006, are highly dramatic: the color and the shapes are playing so vividly to leave the eyes with such a dramatic feeling that never leaves them.” – Nora Amin

Opening: February 6, 2010
Curators: Tami Katz-Freiman and Rotem Ruff
Dana Levy will be one of the many artists involved in “Shelf Life” the central exhibition in an exhibition cluster concerned with collecting, collections and collectors, which is scheduled to open in February 2010 at the Haifa Museum of Art. The exhibition will demonstrate how contemporary Israeli and international artists relate in their works to a range of collecting practices; it will explore the aesthetic syntax of different collections, and examine some of the psychological aspects of collecting and of the artist-collector’s obsessive world. The works included in the exhibition will reflect the aesthetic of “collections,” and will also capture something of the thrust towards excessive accumulation and the pleasures related to satisfying the desire to possess.
