AT DUSK
Joan Roberts Garcia
Avri Ohana

A show about dusk that does not depict the setting sun, but objects and landscapes seen through its light.

It is a show about abstract concerns that take place at this time – such as reversal, replacement, transformation, and reflection. Avri Ohana and Joan Roberts Garcia maintain that by having an intuitive visual conversation about that light, presented through their unique perceptions, mediums, and styles – a bit of dusk’s magic will be captured and witnessed.

The show will be a type of installation, of a shared awe and aesthetic, expressed in two distinct ways.

Avri Ohana
Avri Ohana was born in Casablanca, Morocco and immigrated to Israel at the age of 13. Raised and educated in a kibbutz, he absorbed the magic of the land and the lessons of the artists who lived there: the Dadaist Marcel Janco and the painter Arik Brauer of the Vienna School of Fantastic Realism. As a young man, Ohana was an early member of Ein Hod, Israel’s first artist village.

It was there that he developed his unique voice as an artist. Since then, he has traveled, worked, and exhibited extensively in Israel, Europe, and the United States, where he now lives.
