“Viewers, continuation” deals with the act of looking far away, far from where one is standing. It involves concrete Israeli landscape, while being an act of remembering, about something that is no longer near. This work is the third chapter in a process that began with the work “View”, performed in the Room Dances Festival in 2014 and continued with “Viewers”, performed in the Between Heaven and Earth Festival 2015.

Shelly Palmon was born in 1977. She is a graduate of the School of Visual Theatre and The Jerusalem Academy of Music and Dance. Among her works: “Gentle Warrior”, “Quiet Creatures” and “Tribute to a Drowning Man”
Yuli Kovbasnian was born in 1986. She is a graduate of Seminar Hakibbutzim College.
For the past years she has been working as a dancer with different choreographers, including Arkadi Zaides, Ayala Bresler Nardi, Moran Abergel, Sigal Bergman, Yasmeen Godder and Trajal Harrell.

In the year 2018, the utopia that Boris Schatz wrote about in his novella “The Rebuilt Jerusalem: A Daydream” (1923), is supposed to be fulfilled. A Utopian Jerusalem in which paradise exists; harmonious coexistence with nature and with the Arab residents of the city, and building of the Third Temple, which will serve as a museum, with the consent of the Arab minority.
Three years prior, in the year 2015, at the Hansen House gardens, Paradise is built – a haven in the middle of the city, a white façade bounding a garden that has been expropriated from the public. In Paradise, only one human being at a time can experience the ideal and modern natural living, leaving the public with a sense of longing, allowing a sneak peek into a free and peaceful world, at an affordable price.
The entrepreneurs of Paradise Inn have invited an artist to live and create for a month and a half in this daydream – an infinite-star hotel for one, a slice of nature in the middle of Jerusalem, in the historical garden of the former Lepers’ House.
From the middle of September, Paradise’s sole room will be available for rent at an outrageous rate for all interested.

2015-08-18 11:00 - 12:30 | Mamuta Art and Media Center, Hansen House, Gedaliahu Alon 14, Jerusalem, Israel
“Phil Solomon (b.1954) is a prominent American experimental filmmaker. His works have been widely exhibited. Solomon has been shown at the Whitney Biennial of American Art, the New York Film Festival, MoMA NY, Tate Modern, London, and innumerable other venues in the US, Europe, South America, Japan, Hong Kong, and India. American Falls, commissioned by Corcoran Gallery, Washington DC in 2010, has since been shown worldwide. This 56 minute, three channel digital video will be the highlight of the exhibition at the Hansen Center.
The grandson of Russian Jewish immigrants, reared in Monsey NY in the aftermath of WW II, Solomon has been and is to this day a major participant in the American film avant-garde. His works negotiate 20th century history through the history of film itself. In his magnum opus, American Falls (2010), he chemically manipulates iconic moments of American history as these have been presented in period films, thus weaving a cinematically mediated ironic and anxious look at the American dream. The filmic images drown in a ‘magma’ of molten emulsion in which Solomon finds, in his words, ‘the physical anxiety of the form itself’. This is American history told in a way that reflects tensions pertaining to body consciousness, and to situation in ‘place’.”

Solomon has been shown at the Whitney Biennial of American Art, the New York Film Festival, MoMA NY, Tate Modern, London, and innumerable other venues in the US, Europe, South America, Japan, Hong Kong, and India
In his impressive work American Falls (2010), he chemically manipulates iconic moments of American history as these have been presented in period films, thus weaving a cinematically mediated ironic and anxious look at the American dream.
In recent works Solomon has shifted to purely digital format, appropriating videogame sessions as an unexpected source of ‘found footage’. The In Memoriam trilogy, which shall be shown at the Hansen House together with American Falls, presents an unsettling experience of places that are at the same time very familiar and extremely unreal and uninhabitable.

GOQC
Dir: Yahav Ger
GOQC is a super quantum computer that comes to life in a world without people.
As his consciousness grows, so does his need for an intelligent being such as his human creators. He puts his hope in the rapid evolution of the synthetic creatures around him – mankind’s remains.

Lady Slaughter & Lord Savage Vegan OR Meat Mutineers
Dir: Avishai Sivan
In this video piece, the two evils of human civilization – chauvinism and animal slaughter – come head to head in battle. Leah is loved by a devout vegan, whose love is blind and obsessive. He turns violent when he learns that she slaughters cattle for a living. The cruel and the beautiful, the shrewd and the bestial – are all fused together in a unique punk ballad.

Tour 1
Dir: Myssa Daher
My work was influenced by growing up as fourth and youngest child in my family, a sister to three older brothers. I grew up in front of the TV, which made me restless and bored, and so I invented imaginary games to entertain myself. I constantly wanted to go out on new adventures, just like in the movies. Although by now I realize the difference between movies and reality, this has had a great impact on my present confused and somewhat crazy personality.

Rehearsing the Spectacle of Spectres
Dir: Nir Evron & Omer Kriguer
Rehearsing the Spectacle of Spectres are the opening words of a poem written by Anadad Eldan (b. 1924), a member of kibbutz Be’eri who wrote librettos for kibbutz ceremonies, holiday performances and agricultural pageants, and also published numerous books of his own lyrical poetry. Evron and Krieger invited a group of kibbutz members to recite the 26 verses of this opaque and suggestive poem.

Factory
Dir: Maya Geller
Factory daily routine reveals a series of actions and the people behind it. Trying to pour meaning into empty flour sacks, I became a diligent worker motivated by the factory’s flow; touching the material, sifting, processing, letting it pass through me into the visual text presented to you. As a sterile organ I contained the dreams, desires and erosion the factory holds within it.
