Gil Yefman: Kibbutz Buchenwald

^{Gil Yefman and Dov Or-Ner, Goethe Oak Bench, 2018}

At the center of the exhibition is a new project made in collaboration with artist Dov Or-Ner and the Kuchinate Collective. The exhibition returns to an episode in history shortly after WWII, and deals with the fracture between “Holocaust” and “Revival.” It raises collective traumas as well as suggestions for healing them. Through the motif of cultured nature, an imagined, fantastic, queer, mystical site is created: this is Kibbutz Buchenwald.
