Exhibitions

Iddo Pedahzur’s photography exhibition [born in Jerusalem in 1956] casts light on the peoples’ daily lives in public arenas of local cities and cities abroad. It does so with intensive colorful images.

A spectacular abundance of people is exposed to the lens and to our eyes as objects of passion, revealing their self perception, constitutive and self aware.

What attracts Pedahzur to venture time and again  into the human sphere is the magic he finds in interaction with human beings, whoever they may be, wherever they are and whenever is possible. In his photographs he tests the tension between the aspiration to depict the world as it is, and the understanding that our perception of it, whether visual or literary, is subjective.

The exhibition invites us to join a transboundary journey, challenging our customary notions of space, time and reality.

It takes up two joined galleries . In the back gallery 400 images are screened simultaneously on three walls. The fully lit front gallery features six large photographs suspended in midair- an invitation to a slow meditative observation, a contemplation on the essence of photography and the stationary  ,iconic, individual nature of an image.
