…”Like a tightrope walker who suddenly looks at his shoes, and then at the abyss, we are becoming increasingly aware of the fragility of our existence here; of the sense that the ground is falling out from beneath our feet. Suddenly, nothing can be taken for granted. Not the camaraderie, not the spirit of sacrifice, not the “people’s army,” not the mutual responsibility, nothing. Before our horrified eyes, the one-of-a-kind state that was created here is being emptied of fundamental components of its character, of its specialness, its uniqueness”…

The exhibition about the Protest / “Juridical Coup” was formulated in Kaplan on one of the Shabbat evenings of the month of Tammuz. The heartbreak, the rift between families and friends, between the different tribes, and the recognition that the State of Israel is already in the abyss, alongside with the empowerment we experience together in the demonstrations, caused a sense of urgency that requires action, here and now.

This exhibition was curated in order to bring to the surface the voices of artists who reacted and are reacting to the current situation in Israel.
