Director Yonatan Nevo on his film Between the Negev and the Galilee
The conversation will include artist Uri Weinstein and will focus on his works exhibited in NonFinito.

Tuesday, Dec 16th, 8 pm

Nevo’s film Between the Negev and the Galilee offers a harsh, severely honest portrayal of the old central station area in south Tel Aviv. The film gives an in-depth view of the street life through filmed conversations with the people living there, putting in stark relief their brutal struggle to survive. 

Yonatan Nevo is a visual artist whose work captures the mundane, moving between the permanent and the temporary.

Join us for a conversation between international artist-in-residence Daniel Laufer (Berlin) and writer and critic Hili Perlson (Berlin).

Working with film, installation, text, and painting, Daniel Laufer’s practice interweaves staged imagery, historical inquiry, and poetic speculation. His films and spatial narratives unfold within carefully constructed environments, navigating the interplay between theatricality and the cinematic medium. Through his multi-layered approach, Laufer reflects on how stories travel across time and place; how memory, imagination, and material traces overlap, accumulate, and occasionally contradict one another.

In dialogue with art critic Hili Perlson, he will discuss his narrative strategies, his engagement with scenography, and the cinematic logic that shapes his visual worlds.

The talk will be in English.
