Thirteen different Israeli and international artists have joined forces to form this unique exhibition, which will open simultaneously in 12 botanical gardens around the world.

The works will be viewed via a dedicated App which visitors download to their cell or ipad, while wondering through the beautiful botanical gardens. Most of the works are large, and relate to nature, the environment and sustainability.

The exhibit, which runs through to August 2022, fuses together of the physical and digital worlds.  It is an initiative of the Jerusalem Botanical Garden and the Outest Fund, with the support of the Jerusalem Foundation.

Kids Activities & Workshops

Alongside the exhibition, there will be a variety of activities for children every day during Hanukkah: the tours in the exhibition are accompanied by an interactive booklet on ecology and the environment.

  • Become artists and sculpt one piece from the exhibition into a real clay sculpture.
  • Make flower pots from recycled paper and sow wildflowers from the garden’s seed collection that they can take home and add “new layer to reality”.
  • Children are invited to draw on a slide and place it in the corners of the garden just like the artists in the exhibition.

Jerusalem Biennale 2021 https://funinjerusalem.eladwp-dev.co.il/events/jerusalem-biennale/ Thu, 04 Nov 2021 16:19:48 +0000 https://funinjerusalem.eladwp-dev.co.il/?post_type=events&p=8666 The 2021 Jerusalem Biennale exploring the way art functions in our homes, offices and studios, while creating new ways of sharing art in private space and expanding the art experience beyond public and semi-public spaces.

The Fifth Edition of The Jerusalem Biennale theme will be Four Cubits (ארבע אמות). In Jewish tradition, the term Four Cubits (ארבע אמות) is used to point out a person’s private space. A cubit, or Ama in Hebrew, is an ancient measurement of length of about 0.5 meters. Therefore, four cubits are about 2 meters- the 2 meter circle surrounding a person is his/her personal space.

Under this title, JB2021’s program will consist of three major components: Venues, PHASEs, and Take Me Home. All three will have both an in-person and online presence.

More information coming soon…
