"Five Exercises of Resistance" is an annual project, a group exhibition composed of five chapters that will be presented sequentially in the course of the International Season at MUZA - Eretz Israel Musuem, Tel Aviv. Each chapter will feature one video work by an international artist.
These exhibited works present different possibilities of resistance - actions that are not only concerned with past injustices, but also with an imagined future, which may one day become a new reality. Some works make use of humor or irony, while others address cultural norms and disrupt them as a form of protest. Additional works revolve around a joint action, or operate through a politics of love.
The observation of the different cultures with which these artists are affiliated, and the different tools for resistance presented in the exhibition, enable us to raise social and political questions pertaining to our local reality, to think in a critical, unprejudiced manner, to free ourselves of the constraints of localism, and to offer new tools for resistance. In this manner, the exhibition points to burning questions at the heart of Israeli reality - borders and walls, gender-related concerns, economic questions, immigration, religion and racism.
