Exhibition Break | Ron Arad | 720° of Pure Magic
Yesterday was a very special day. I got to spend some quality time with my bestie, who lives in London and whom I haven’t seen in a year. Anyways, we decided to do something different than drinking lots of coffee and talking till we drop. Instead we drove all the way to The Israel Museum in Jerusalem to explore Ron Arad’s 720° installation. What can I say, Ron Arad is Ron Arad and he never ceases to amaze! It all began with his Curtain Call installation at the Roundhouse. Lucky for us, Ron has a strong connection to Israel ;) It all felt like a magical forest, made out of silicone branches but I don’t really feel like talking too much about it. Here is a behind the scenes look.


Oh My, It’s No Other Than Mr. Yohji Yamamoto!
Earlier today, I’ve visited The Design Museum Holon and had an up close and intimate look at 80 of Yohji Yamamoto‘s breathtaking creations. Yeah, Yohji Yamamoto’s vision and detailed world, finally made it to Israel! Touching, sometimes even smelling and gazing at the art pieces made me appreciate the Japanese mind even more! If I have to point at only one thing I really liked, it has to be the upper gallery red room installation. I spent the majority of the time in this room (more than 30min), trying to get inside Mr. Yamamoto’s head or better yet, his dreams. The sea of tangled light bulbs and the Japanese vibe made it all hundred times more magical…


Student Break | Shimon Cornfeld | Floating Emotions

Imagine a room with two pools. Inside are floating white glass pieces tied to weights. I must confess that I was blown away by all the emotions that flooded me. The only thing Shimon agreed to say was that this creation was his own therapy. It allowed him to look inside and dig deep.
I don’t know what the story is but I’m sure that the fact that Shimon comes from a religious family with many children has something to do with it.
I wish you could experience it for yourself.

Israelis@MilanDesignWeek | d-Vision | Design with Unseen Waves

Last year it was the On-Off exhibition but this year it’s all about Ultra Gamma.
d-Vision teamed up with the Bezalel’s M.Des program for a bigger, brighter and colorful installation, which Ezri Tarazi and the young designers put together. The concept behind it all is that “fifty years from now, waves will be discovered at a frequency currently unknown to mankind.”
The lucky ones can still experience the deep dark blue feeling creation at the 50+50 exhibition Salone De Mobile.
