In the framework of the exhibition “Andy, Matthew and Ruti,” Liam Chambon will host artists Alona Friedberg and Shahar Yahalom in a conversation about his work Boys Will Be Boys. Friedberg and Yahalom were Chambon’s teachers at the HaMidrasha Art School, Beit Berl College and Friedberg was in dialogue with him around the development of this work. During the talk, they will discuss the relationships between video and still photography materialized, and the obfuscation of the consciousness during the moment of a destructive act, such that it does not permit its understanding or the taking of responsibility for it.
