Thirteen artists, six women and seven men, participate in Part II of the exhibition Family/Tree, with paintings, sculptures and installations. The age gap between them is over forty years, and in this sense they represent several generations and different artistic approaches in Israeli art. However, the works are all from a limited period – the past decade, from 2000 onwards, except for one work dated 1996. As expected, there is similarity in the works, derived from the historical and artistic periods alike: a note of pessimism and elegy.
