The White City | A Black and White Window at the Heart of Color
Sold
'The White City' brings the Tel Aviv of the past and the city of today onto one canvas. At the heart of the painting, like a window opened in time, a black and white passage of an old street corner with an eclectic building, a vintage car and a horse-drawn cart; around it the street of today in color, with Bauhaus balconies, shops, pedestrians and trees. The monochrome window turns memory into a living part of the present and sharpens the tension between the innocence of the old city and the pace of the new one. A wide urban work from the 'Tel Aviv Then and Now' series, painted in 2021, 140 × 100 cm, oil on canvas, signed with a certificate of authenticity. The painting has been sold and is kept here as a record of the series. Other works from the series are available in the gallery.
