Curated by Pryle Behrman Encounters is a section in which two meanings of the word ‘encounter’ meet. An encounter is often unexpected, perhaps leading to the discovery of an unknown artist or, alternatively, an unexpected style or theme from a well-known artist; an encounter can also suggest a confrontation between opposing positions and artworks that challenge entrenched views and understandings.

Artist News Yifat Bezalel & Daniel Tchetchik
Opening of “Shipless Oceans”, a joint exhibition of works by Yifat Bezalel and Daniel Tchetchik, on Thursday, October 28th from 6PM.
The exhibition showcases the artists’ recent works in an intimate space where seemingly unrelated works paint a common poetic song. It is rare to show drawing and photography together.
When Yifat Bezalel and Daniel Tchetchik decided to work on this exhibition, it felt completely natural, both aesthetically and narratively, almost essential, being both renowned artists in their own fields and hyper sensitive human beings. The idea came after a long period of creative introspection. Both artists delved into their past works and revisited their esthetic references in a new light or rather a new darkness.

We are thrilled to share Dudy Dayan's first online retrospective covering his 17 years as a professional photographer. His insatiable curiosity led him to explore Israel's secluded religious communities. Yet, Dayan's work goes beyond a particular group.
His compassion and kindness is apparent in the work presented here. Dayan transcends the relation between homoerotic desire and aesthetic judgment and instead embraces the queer individuality of his subject matters.
