Yitzhak Golombek - “Gaya”
Dvir Gallery, Tel Aviv
November 8 - December 13, 2003
"Exhibited is a garden surrounded by cardboard sculptures, each a still life, about the height of a three-year-old. The objects – packaging, sewing notions and ornaments – which are piled up into towers or strewn on the floor like archeological ruins, are from a home where nothing is thrown away 'in case it might come in handy some day.' The back garden sits on a balcony belonging to a family of refugees. A universe of three generations huddling together and clinging to one another while holding on to inanimate objects that harbor the touch of the father, the son, the daughter. At the same time, the exhibit aims to achieve maximal receptiveness to materials and forms, and to construct from the compressed parcels the alphabet of an independent sculptural language."Yitzhak Golombek
