Zadok was invited to show his video installation 'Conversation Peace'. The video shows two stationary silhouettes of people bent towards each other. Whether they are in conversation or in conflict is free to interpretation. In the silhouettes, a sensual narrative plays out, starting with a lovely landscape that slowly becomes a war zone. At the same time, the soundtrack of charming birds becomes a hard and tense pulse...

The 13th Krasnoyarsk Museum Biennale is the oldest interdisciplinary Biennale in Russia since 1995. On this occasion, the Museum Center for Contemporary Art in Siberia called "Peace Square Museum" hosts the largest installation of "People I Saw But Never Met" ever displayed. The program of the Biennale is devoted to the artistic rethinking of Siberian and international art, the study of the urban problems of the city, the problems of communication between modern art and human, as well as the local specifics of art. 

​

"The desire to get closer to the people from the piece is intentionally upset as the viewing is possible only from the edges of the field. Ben-David carefully arranges the figures to create patterns and paths that lead the eye across the space. Among the static figures, there is a hidden movement where everyone moves in different directions and where the sand acts as a fertile ground to shows both the fragility of the foundation on which the human community stands, and the substance from which we all flow. And, despite the differences in scale - there is no hierarchy, each figure, regardless of its origin, is considered with dignity and respect."

Press release by art curator Sergey Kovalevsky

June 18, 2019

"People I Saw but Never Met" is Zadok Ben-David’s latest ongoing body of work inspired by people from all around the world. The installation originates from culled and drawn photographs of people that Zadok took while travelling to Europe, central Asia, Australia, USA, and Antarctica. To celebrate this diversity, the Braganca Contemporary Art Museum in Portugal has organised the most comprehensive exhibition so far, including sketches, drawings, individual sculptures and a large-scale installation constituted of 4,000 chemically etched miniatures and 90 large hand-cut figures made from aluminium.

« 36,000 Years of Modern Art » is a film by Manuelle Blanc dedicated to the imprint of Paleolithic art in today's Modern Art. The film featured as part of the curation programme of the exhibition « Prehistory, A Modern Enigma » at the Centre Pompidou in Paris, France.

Along a chronological path, the exhibition unveils how artists like Zadok have succumbed to the appeal of origins in the modern era, yielding to a fantasised vision of what came before history. This time-machine constantly shapes the mental boundaries of modernity and provides concrete models for all sorts of experiments.

“People I Saw But Never Met” is Ben-David’s latest ongoing body of work, 2000 chemically etched miniature figures will be displayed in a private location in Seoul (Korea) as part of SUUM Project. Each figure was culled from photographs the artist took of people he encountered from a distance as a result of his travels to Europe, The United States, Central Asia, Far East Australia, and Antarctica. The installation brings together an unlikely assemblage of global citizens. Ben-David’s sculptural milieu comes at a critical point in our current socio-political climate where heated debates about exclusion and borders versus inclusivity and multiplicity are part of our daily experience.

One more year Zadok’s artwork has been selected to be part of Beyond Limits Sotheby’s at Chatsworth, Derbyshire, UK. The piece Exotic Tree will be on display until 26th October.

Exotic Tree is part of the Innerscapes series which Ben-David has been creating over the last 6 years. The Innerscapes series plays upon the idea of worlds existing within a larger subject matter. In this piece one can see the arboreal world in which the Lilliputian figures inhabit. Whether the viewer construes them to be part of the tree and therefore existing symbiotically with it or whether the figures have created a separate world within the canopy it forces the viewer to address the issue of man and nature.

NEWLAND 12. 07. – 10. 08. 2013

Kunstverein Viernheim & Kontur. Kunstverein Stuttgart e.V. (ADKV)

Opening: Friday 12. July., 19 pm

Introdution: Dr. Otto Rothfuss, Kontur. Kunstverein Stuttgart

Discovering „NEWLAND“ is an everlasting human dream. Vision and imagination, the desire for freedom and the freedom of scope, dreams and utopia of another life are the forces driving man to break-up, to leave home and get exposed to unkown danger. Even unthinkable riscs cannot stop our love of adventure. No threat, no failure is big enough to destroy man’s pionieering spirit, to hold him back from expeditions. Once on his way, confidence grows with every challenge passed and what a redemption if the foreign shore appears. Euphoria and the fascination of strangeness go along with amazement, surprise and the memory of what we find familiar there as soon as we take the first steps in this wonderland. And slowly and irresistible a change goes on with us. We grow and with every mistake we do, with every knew insight we get we acquire new knowledge and new self-confidence. We learn to see the world with other eyes, from different angles and wonder about the metamorphosis that happens with us.

Artists: Ursula Bohren & Claurio Magoni, Zadok Ben-David, Werner Degreif, Klaudia Dietewich, Joachim Fleischer, Barbara Hindahl, Barbara Karsh-Chaïeb, Francisco Klinger Carvalho, Gudrun Knapp, Thomas Mulcaire, Andreas Opiolka, Platino, Margarete Rebmann, Brigitte Schawacke, Signe Theill, Margot Witte, Andrea Zaumseil, Helmut Anton Zirkelbach.

Zadok Ben-David’s exhibition, The Other Side of Midnight, is the artist’s seventh solo show at Annandale Galleries. Art Collector interviews Ben-David about the direction of his latest work.

​

Hannah: The centerpiece of your exhibition is The Other Side of Midnight, a large-scale work made from hand-painted stainless steel illuminated by UV light, the installation of the work involved painting the interior of the gallery black. It is not unusual for you to create work on this scale, but the use of paint and UV light seems like a definitive shift, what brought upon this striking introduction of colour?

​

Zadok: It is true that this is the first large-scale installation being installed in a complete darkness. In the past, I worked with holograms and video installations that had been projected from floor and ceiling simultaneously, all required different preparations, but none had gone that far into total blackness.

​

The Other Side of Midnight deals with a theme of extreme, in order to maximise the effect I had to use glowing colours under UV lights in a complete darkness, any other colour on the walls except black might appears too bright.

​

H: In recent years the image of a human-butterfly creature has featured repeatedly in your work, given that in the past your iconography has related to a more clear-cut scientific source, where does this mystical hybrid find its origins?

​

Z: It is the third decade that the subject matter of my works concentrates around the theme of human nature, (with the) human figure as part of our natural environment. Surrounded by natural species, like animal, plants or even invisible natural forces (like gravity and light, explored in the installationEvolution and Theory), all used as metaphorical images and tools to human behaviour.

​

In the 1980s, the sources of the metaphors in my works came from classic old fables where the animals behaved like human beings. In the 1990s it wasMagical Reality, involving hidden elements, anti-gravity and illusion.

​

In the past decade the work I am more concentrating on visible nature. Like trees made of human figures, or vice versa, human figures inspired by trees and vegetation. A similar kind of hybrid is being expressed now via combination of human and insects.

​

H: You have been quoted as saying you are interested in ideas around beauty and repulsion. In The Other Side of Midnight the two sides of a world (or moon) are presented, one side is tessellated with a brilliant and colourful collection of human-butterflies and the other a mass of beetles and cockroaches lit in a solid, luminescent blue. Delicate and lace-like in appearance, these two worlds appear to coexist on a knife’s edge, what inspired this pairing?

​

Z: The Other Side of Midnight is a direct development from the Blackfield<span”>installation with 20,000 miniature flowers.

​

Blackfield is more of psychological installation, very moody, developing and changing while you walk along. It has also black and colour, symbolising state of mind, leaving a choice by showing both side of the coins. 

The Other Side of Midnight is similar with its back and front presentation. Unlike Blackfield with its dark front, in this new installation the frontal side appears with an ultimate beauty, which immediately might turn into a nightmarish experience, hence the title of the piece. 

​

We tend to marvel at the beauty of the butterflies wings ignoring the insects in the middle, while being repelled when the insects appear on their own, since they are lacking of visual appeal, here we have an attraction at first, then repulsion. Seeing the insects being presented in such a glorious glow make us think the opposite, a kind of curious and unexpected attraction to the ugliness.

​

H: Historically your freestanding sculptures have often involved a strong sense of grounding. Many have heavily foreshortened shadows rendered in stainless steel connecting them permanently to the earth/ground/plinth that they rest upon. The Other Side of Midnight moves away from this grounding to an ethereal, suspended double-sided tondo. The viewer is naturally drawn to comparisons with the moon and a mandala, is it an example of the magical or mystical becoming a stronger influence on your work?

​

Z: My work is constantly moving from the spiritual and mystical to down to earth presentations. From floating to reflection. The total air space always attracted me more than the floor space, trying to ignore the restrictions given by gravity, wishing to retain the freedom that a painter has when using the canvas while confronting a real space.

​

The free-standing works are usually a study for the large installation, they are frontal like drawings on papers. Yet, the images stand on their own … (In The Other Side of Midnight) these two circles differ radically and symbolically from each other, just like the distance from air and ground, close, yet too far.

We have been receiving our first reviews from the exhibition at Shoshana Wayne Gallery in L.A. where the exhibition is being showed for the first time. Edward Goldman, art critic, talked in his KCRW podcast about his experience of seeing the installation for the first time: “The whole experience makes you feel a bit like you’re at a theatrical performance. Act one reveals a beautiful world full of colour and promise, only to be followed by act two with its dramatic and even tragic undertones, reminding us of our own fears and mortality“.

Following his research of Victorian botanical imagery Zadok continues to explore the relationship between man and nature.

The installation contains more than 2,000 hand painted figures with colourful butterflies wings “The butterflies series is the last link in the chain of the relationship between man and nature, a theme that is being explored throughout my work during the past two decades.

‘The other side of Midnight’ is a three meter circle with two faces, front and back. The installation explores our perception of beauty and repulsion via the nature that surrounding us”, explains Zadok.

Zadok Ben-David’s upcoming exhibition at Shoshana Wayne Gallery will open in January 2013. In this exhibition the sculptor will show new works, a collection of sculptures and an installation, questioning the perception of beauty embodied as a dichotomy. In the installation you will see on one side colourfully detailed butterflies, hand painted, and on the other side, insects, cockroaches and beetles rendered in one colour. The 3m large circular installation with more than 2,000 miniature butterflies will be transformed by hanging indoor in a dark room under UV light. Ben-David’s new collection of aluminium sculptures has developed from his previous exhibition in Singapore; true to himself the artist keeps pushing his work and finding new ways to engage with his practice.

Sotheby’s will host its first selling exhibition of outdoor sculpture in Asia with the support of the Singapore Tourism Board and the National Parks Board presenting 17 works by award-winning international sculptor Zadok Ben-David against the magnificent backdrop of the Singapore Botanic Gardens from 23 October2012 to 31 January 2013.

For the exhibition at Singapore Botanic Gardens this autumn, Ben-David has created 12 new works, drawn from themes from some of his most powerful sculpture series. Figures, trees and butterflies are entwined in works which challenge our perceptions of reality. Each is a unique creation made of Corten (or “weathering”) steel. When exposed to the elements, the steel rusts, forming as it does so, a constantly regenerating protective coating. In keeping with the subject matter of Zadok Ben-David’s work, this continuous cycle evolves before our eyes, mirroring the changing seasons of nature.

Speaking about the forthcoming exhibition, Zadok Ben-David said: “This is the first time I have created such a large and concentrated installation in one open public location. The works on show span several years, but I have made 12 of the 16 sculptures in the last few months. It is a totally new departure to be able to show my work in a variety of landscapes – in water and green spaces – and to see them working together.”

The exhibition is partly sponsored by Bank Sarasin, and will be free and open to the public.
