Arthur Essebag, a French media icon, transforms grief into action by collecting powerful Israeli artworks created in the Oct. 7 aftermath – now displayed at the Tel Aviv Museum of Art

The proceeds of Sketches of Resilience will be donated to widows and orphans of IDF reservists through the IDF Widows & Orphans organization (IDFWO). 

The Like A Dance in the Dark exhibit is produced in collaboration with the Paris-based Miss Parisette run by Elinor Agam, a theater director and former cultural attaché to Israel's Embassy in Paris.

Fred Kormis' memorial will be united with many of his other sculptures and prints in an upcoming exhibition at London’s Wiener Holocaust Library.

I met with three Israeli artists of very different backgrounds and experiences whose art gave me the feeling of summer escapism, who agreed to answer my three questions:

Orthodox singer Hanan Ben Ari held a performance for members of the Belev Echad organization Sunday night, with many of the audience members being soldiers injured in Operation Iron Swords

Vanda Keren is a colorist who masterfully expresses images with a realism that borders on abstraction, particularly when depicting a close-up of a butterfly wing or a tangle of leaves.

Lubanov’s art is naïve. Her works are usually full of figurative details and events from everyday life, expressed on the canvas with smiling simplicity.

Yossi Waxman's "Class Picture, Poets and Other Birds" opens August 17 at Ein Hod's Janco-Dada Museum, showcasing portraits of Hebrew poets with symbolic birds. The exhibit runs until October 15.

Escape to art: Free family activities at Ramat Aviv Mall in August.
