In recent years Yochai Avrahami has been studying the ways and methods in which artwork is displayed in visitor centers and museums of military history, Holocaust museums and other centers memorializing national disasters. In this exhibition he presents a series of images presented along the width and breadth of the Israeli Center for Digital Art hallways. The display is dense and crowded, experimenting with different methods of presentation, creating topical clusters that blur the origins of the original museum from which each piece came and subsequently exposing a language of national representation. The exhibit creates a form of alternative museum dedicated to historical museums, displaying not wars and catastrophes, winners and losers, but rather the methodologies of manipulation, technology, failures and the inadequacies of display.
