Old Yishuv Court Museum<br />

Visit (10:00-17:00)<br />

The Isaak Kaplan Old Yishuv Court Museum, documenting a<br />

world no longer existing: the old Jewish settlement which<br />

lived inside the old city walls for 500 years, before the city<br />

was occupied by the Jordanians. From the many items, the<br />

story of its past owners comes to life: stories of marriage and<br />

birth, happy and sad times, everyday coping with life's<br />

difficulties, being satisfied with little and believing in the<br />

almighty. A new exhibition: drop of milk<br />

Body Gestures and campo 82133 N - Shay Frisch Peri (10:00-<br />

14:00)<br />

Free-entry.<br />

Body gestures constitute a highly expressive means of<br />

communication, which includes a wide range of both<br />

conspicuous and inconspicuous movements. This language<br />

functions as a parallel or alternative to the use of words; at<br />

times it completes and underscores a verbal message, while in<br />

other instances it endows it with a different, contradictory, or<br />

surprising meaning, or replaces words altogether. The works<br />

featured in the exhibition Body Gestures examine the logic,<br />

meaning, and impact of this body language in a range of<br />

different ways.<br />

Participating artists: William Cobbing, Pierre Coulibeuf,<br />

Thomas Hirschhorn, Lea Golda Holterman, Nadav Kander, Tali<br />

Keren, Galia Uri, Araya Rasdjarmrearnsook, Hadas Reshef,<br />

Shachaf Yaron.<br />

The Museum's main gallery features Shay Frisch Peri's<br />

installation Campo 82133 N, which includes two wall works<br />

and a floor work. These works are composed of 82,133 black<br />

electric adaptors, which are plaited together into basic<br />

geometric shapes - a rectangle, square and circle. These three<br />

electric circuits emit a pale light, and their embroidered<br />

surfaces have an austere and meticulous quality.<br />
