The Petek project aimed at running for the Israeli Knesset elections. The idea was to use the Party Financing Law to submit a list for the Knesset and receive air time as part of the television and radio propaganda broadcasts. The Petek project operated on several levels: in the art world, in Israeli politics, on the Internet, and in various forms of mass media, advertising and distribution.
Petek identified the Israeli election campaign as a powerful platform on which contents and actions challenging prevalent perceptions about the role and function of politics, power relations, and the interrelations between politics and art, establishment and culture, establishment and subversion, may be superimposed.
The Petek project generates confusion. It uses rules derived from the systems of politics, art, the establishment, anarchism, economy, Internet, religion, mass media, and activism, exploring their validity and impact, while implementing and assimilating them into other systems. Petek makes politics and art. It surrenders to the systems and at the same time fights against them.
