Oululu (Tell Him) by David Adikar November 20, 2010

David Adika is known for his poignant and complex examinations of Israeli domestic space, in which he observes the tension between the two main Jewish ethnic groups, the Ashkenazi Jews and the Sephardic Jews. For his new body of work on show in this exhibition, Adika has widened his focus to observe similarities and differences between the Israeli Jew and the Israeli Arab, as well as those between Israel and its neighbours.

The show is entitled Oululu, (Tell Him), a reference to classic Arab song that the artist's grandmother used to sing when he was a child, and showcases some twenty photographs and two prints, which will be displayed in the different rooms of the gallery as a complex installation by the artist. The images vary in sizes and will either standalone or be grouped, on pastel coloured walls.
