Monument

Supplement 22

This issue accompanies the Neo-Monumental exhibition which engages with the attitudes of contemporary artists with the physical presence of monuments in Israel’s public space, and with the narrative contexts they seek to maintain.

Included in this issue are compilations on The Complete Jessy Cohen Museum and one on the concept of “gesture”.
