Art Industry 2005

5.2005 – Art Industry 2005
Israel Festival, Jerusalem Theater, Jerusalem
Curators:  Doron Polak and Esti Drori


Within the framework of the Israel Festival, the Jerusalem Theater exhibited the Art Industry Exhibition in honor of the
70^th anniversary of industrial unification in Jerusalem.
In this exhibition, I debuted my sculpture "Flight of the Tracks", which is made of metal waste, weighing in at five tons and towering to a height of 9 meters.

The base of the sculpture is comprised of stone railway sleepers and iron railway tracks.  The upper portion comprises motor parts and leans on the wheel mechanism of a railway car dating from the 1950's.

The sculptural materials were taken from a foundry for railway parts using wooden templates.  This foundry served as a source for railway parts for all trains in the Middle East until 1952.
The sculpture was positioned in Shrober Square, in the Jerusalem Theater, during May of 2005.
