Sharon Glazberg: Meridian
RawArt Gallery, Tel Aviv, Israel
January 11 - February 10, 2018
Featuring photographs, sculptures, videos, works on paper, and installations, the exhibition provided a broad look at the artist's oeuvre. While most of Glazberg's previous exhibitions featured coherent, thematic, and sometimes site-specific displays, "Meridian" offered a multiplicity. The diversity of mediums, sizes, lengths, techniques, and actions pointed to the multidisciplinary inherent to the artist's work over the years. Within that diversity, the show highlighted specific themes and principles that had recurred in the artist's work. As its title implied, the exhibition offered the viewer several directions, trajectories, or axes as possible paths to access the artist's oeuvre.
The most prominent theme in Glazberg's work is nature, as a constructed landscape and a wild, uncontrollable reality. Glazberg works with her environment, be it human, agricultural, vegetable, or animal. She works with it, inside it, inseparable from it. She is attuned to nature's cyclical temporality (as is evident in her looped videos, for example), to its inevitable disasters and miraculous moments.
