Description
The Magnes presents @60.art.israel.world, a survey of recent work by over 20 contemporary Israeli artists, including Barry Frydlender, Ori Gersht, Sigalit Landau, Adi Nes, Michal Rovner, and Yehudit Sasportas. On loan from important private Bay Area collections, the paintings, photographs, and media art in the exhibition demonstrate the progressive and international scope of Israeli art today.

May 2008 will mark the sixtieth anniversary of the Declaration of the Establishment of the State of Israel. As part of the international celebration the Magnes has organized @60.art.israel.world, an exhibition of work by contemporary Israeli artists, curated by Alla Efimova, Magnes Chief Curator.
