I arrived an hour ahead of time at the gallery and the gallery doors were closed. How did I get confused? Not sure. I like to be early, but getting an hour ahead of time - I really exaggerated. I decided to take a walk and pass the time on Rothschild Boulevard until the gallery opens. Every Friday on the boulevard there is a farmers and second-hand market and lots of stalls. I rejuvenated with new frames for paintings and carried the bag with the new purchases to launch.

I carried it with me on all the wanderings between the rooms in the gallery. It went with me from room to room , listened to the curator Efi Gen talk about the artists. The bag was almost pushed into photography, but I didn't let her interfere with the creative art, meet who's who in Rishon Letion culture and document.

About the exhibition

I won't write about the whole exhibition itself. Why? So you can come and see for yourself. What will I write to you? That there are no exhibitions without spectators and without visitors. In the strange time that overwhelms us, take a break, pop into the gallery and soak up some creative quality. Better on days when Leah Topper gives a tour of the gallery.
