The northern eye through which he observes the local landscape uses a restrained palette and with tools derived from realism. His paintings contain realistic elements, but also abstract or flat surfaces which conceal parts of the view, producing a tension between its two parts: the figurative, which endeavors to present reality for the viewer, and the abstract, which seems to maintain that some things cannot be conveyed via matter.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Some of the paintings center on vague, incomprehensible shapes, some may be partially deciphered, while others are abstract; some are painted as if they had been attached with masking tape to the painting or to a window within the painting, others hover, but all of them are in the painting as if to defy and provide a counterweight to the act of observation, which is at the core of the realistic experience.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":3773,"template":"","categories":[204],"artists":[2447],"exhibition":[2448],"curator":[2449],"years":[142],"class_list":["post-3046","exhibitions","type-exhibitions","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-solo-exhibitions","artists-abraham-storer","exhibition-against-the-day","curator-yanai-segal","years-2018-en"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/art.org.il\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/exhibitions\/3046","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/art.org.il\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/exhibitions"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/art.org.il\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/exhibitions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/art.org.il\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/3773"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/art.org.il\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3046"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/art.org.il\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3046"},{"taxonomy":"artists","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/art.org.il\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/artists?post=3046"},{"taxonomy":"exhibition","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/art.org.il\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/exhibition?post=3046"},{"taxonomy":"curator","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/art.org.il\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/curator?post=3046"},{"taxonomy":"years","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/art.org.il\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/years?post=3046"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
