EXHIBITION: RECYCLED/REPURPOSED/REPAIR THE WORLD: Art as Tikkun Olam
Recycling and Creativity Equals What? Artists Recycle and Repair the World

"ARTSPER Magazine, 2018
Today, ecology is at the center of many political, economic and social debates. No wonder
that it got its way into contemporary creation too, through the more or less defined
movement of recycled art. Whether they are politically committed artists or simply walking
in Duchamp’s footsteps and his ready-mades, their artworks are profoundly original and
create unexpected figures from unlikely materials..."

A desk calendar that is now an Omer calendar; a cigarette box that is now an Etrog box. These recycled treasures from the museum’s permanent collection serve as inspiration as 22 artists recycle and repurpose objects from the ridiculous to the sublime, demonstrating their creativity, concern for our environment and the concept of Tikkun Olam (Repair the World).
