Ilit Azoulay – Facts and Tales (Hardback)

In an era in which multiple perspectives and oral histories are increasingly vital, this book delves into the haunting work of Ilit Azoulay (b. Jaffa, 1972). The artist transforms objects, archives, and museum holdings into vessels, challenging traditional hierarchies of knowledge.

This publication accompanying her solo exhibition, Mere Things at the Jewish Museum, New York, includes archival pages, the artist’s notes, depictions of the works, as well as texts by curator Shira Backer and the art critic Sarit Shapira, who passed away in 2018. The catalogue, designed as a box containing 6 different publications, aims to dismantle established narratives and open up diverse perspectives. The publication is a limited edition of 500 copies.
