The Me'Or Modiim Museum of Conceptual Art
|
I am putting together in Me'Or Modiim, Israel a work and exhibition space for conceptual and performance art.
I have an industrial building which I am renovating at the pace money supply dictates; the institutions are oblivious to any attempt by folks without the political connections or cash to make them and I have basically been stonewalled stince 1979 but never gave up.
The space is in the center of the Country, halfway between Jerusalem and Tel Aviv (abt 20 min. non-rush-hour drive and 4 minutes from BGU Airport; it's situated in a grove of eucalyptus trees with plenty of room for expansion.
To make a living in the time I can spare from gathering resources and building MeMoMuCA I own and manage half of an unique Italian restaurant in the village, called "Luciano's", mostly as a venue to promote my other projects.
The struggle to keep the building and land has taken its toll in the form of my divorce last Jan.28th; ironically this is what might give me access to the funds needed to complete the building and put it in operation.
Please wait a while for the rest of this site to be built, and in the meantime I shall welcome suggestions, offers to exhibit or host my and my associates exhibitions elsewhere, and why not? even cash, equipment or leftover building materials if they are reachable.
Any donations are tax-deductible in Israel and will be soon in USA and Canada through the PEF after registration update.
For further information or just to shoot some breeze, contact me Baruch Oliviero and I will respond to all.
