The photo exhibition \u201cIsrael in the eyes of Kharkiv residents\u201d devoted to the celebration of the 70th anniversary of the State of Israel was opened in the AVEC Gallery. The exhibition was prepared by the Israeli Cultural Centre in Kharkiv under the Embassy of the State of Israel to Ukraine.<\/p>\n
The exhibited works were selected for the exhibition according to the results of the competition \u201cIsrael sheli \u2013 My Israel,\u201d which was held on social networks by the Israeli Cultural Centre in Kharkiv.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe participants of the competition \u2013 the residents of Kharkiv \u2013 presented their works, which reflect their vision of the State of Israel \u2013 its history, culture, architecture, and residents. Each of them reflects one of the sides of this many-sided country, whose contribution to the global culture cannot be overestimated. Israel is great not only with its history and modern achievements. Israel is one of the richest cultures, it is a popular Israeli cuisine, it is the sea and the blue sky with white clouds. It is the cultural symbols and codes, which may be unraveled over and over again,\u201d the organizers of the exhibition tell.<\/p>\n
It should be reminded that a year ago, the Israeli Cultural Centre in Kharkiv organized another interesting photo exhibition in the AVEC Gallery devoted to Israel\u2019s Independence Day \u2013 the works by young Israeli photographers \u201cJerusalem. The youth of the eternal city.\u201d And last November, the Gallery also exhibited the works by more than 70 modern Israeli artists, which were painted on an unusual material \u2013 wooden badminton rackets: the exhibition \u201cBeach rackets. Made in Israel.\u201d<\/p>\n
