EXHIBITION TALK
WITH ORY DESSAU (CURATOR, AUTHOR) / KLEINER FREITAG
Thursday, 2 June, 7 PM
We are looking forward to an exhibition talk within the exhibition Blade Memory II, presenting works by a young generation of artists from Israel: Ory Dessau is an independent curator and author will talk with the Kunstverein’s artistic director Rebekka Seubert about the temporary and impermanent, about doubt and the artistic approaches of a young generation of artists from Israel.
Blade Memory is a two-part exhibition: its first chapter took place in 2021 at CCA Tel Aviv-Yafo. The exhibition is curated by the three Israeli artists Naama Arad, I. S. Kalter and Eran Nave, invited by Nicola Trezzi and Rebekka Seubert.
Ory Dessau (*1979, Tel Aviv) is an independent curator and writer based in Ghent and Brussels. He has collaborated with museums such as the Tel Aviv Museum of Art, Neue Nationalgalerie, Berlin, S.M.A.K., Ghent, and Moderna Museet Malmö. In 2021 he curated Facing the Crowd: On and Around Lecture Performance at West, Den Haag. Dessau’s texts are regularly published in different art magazines such as Art Review, Flash Art, Mousse Magazine and Metropolis M.
