Tuesday, March 12th, 2013Catch Oded’s Work Downtown!
Thursday, September 27th, 2012If you missed Oded Hirsch’s critically-acclaimed short films this spring, you have another chance! ‘TELEGRAMS ON THE TABLE: An Interrupted Allegory + Picaresque Adventure,’ curated and produced by Cheryl Kaplan, will feature Oded’s work alongside shorts by dozens of international artists, filmmakers, philosophers, choreographers, and composers, in a fresco based on Fellini’s ‘La Dolce Vita.’
As Pasolini wrote: “There is not one significant communication in La Dolce Vita which is presented purely functionally; it is always excessive, overcharged, lyrical, magical or too violently veristic. That is to say it is semantically amplified…” As Curator/Producer Cheryl Kaplan has stated: “One of the aims of TELEGRAMS ON THE TABLE is to semantically amplify Fellini.”

Oded Hirsch’s Groundbreaking Work in Liverpool!
Tuesday, May 22nd, 2012As a part of the London 2012 Festival, celebrating the UK’s biennial of international contemporary art, Oded Hirsch has been commissioned by Liverpool Biennial! For the Olympic year, Liverpool Biennial is asking artists and thinkers to bring forth new understandings of hospitality for our increasingly globalised and complex times.
Oded’s work will present a sculptural intervention in the heart of Liverpool’s shopping district, Liverpool ONE. Hinting at a mysterious subterranean world emerging abruptly through the city’s streets, this unexpected and unexplained sculptural presence disrupts the experience of shoppers and passersby alike. It will ask questions about how we negotiate concealed spaces.

Oded Hirsch Show in Texas
Monday, December 20th, 2010Six Points Cohort II Fellow Oded Hirsch’s luminous photography and video will be exhibited in Out of Place, curated by Noah Simblist, at the Lora Reynolds Gallery in Austen, TX.
The exhibition will include six international artists, many of whom rarely exhibit their work in the US, more often showing in Europe or the Middle East. For instance, this will be the US premier of Yael Bartana’s film, Mur i Weisa (Wall and Tower), last seen at her recent solo exhibition at the Moderna Museet in Stockholm.
The premise of the exhibition is related to Edward Said’s description of his memoir Out of Place (the namesake of the show) as “a record of a lost or forgotten world.” He was referring to the Palestinian condition of exile – a displacement that creates a gap between both physical spaces and states of mind. But this notion can be thought of in more general terms, serving as the starting point for a group of artists who explore placelessness as it is manifest in Israel-Palestine. Being in one place, but consumed by the memory of another, produces works that are uncanny, combining familiar and unfamiliar contexts into something strange.
