Gustav Metzger: Testimony and Action
First exhibition in Israel for Gustav Metzger, born in Germany in 1926 and living in London since 1939. In 1959, Metzger published his Autodestructive Art Manifesto, establishing a one-artist artistic trend. The exhibition includes later works, from the series “Historic Photographs” (1995) and the installation “Eichmann and the Angel” (2005), as well as rare documentary films featuring conversations with the artist, from the Generali Foundation Collection, Vienna.
The exhibition is supported by Wendy Fisher; The British Council
