Overview
The bridge is an add-on to the water. When standing on the bridge, one feels a great closeness to the water, a personal experience of being alone with it

The exhibition "On the Banks of the Yarkon" looks at the Yarkon river from a historic-artistic perspective, noting different aspects and emphases in artistic depictions of its landscape: the Yarkon landscape as a means of expressing and forming the artist's identity, as a modernist abstract represantation of nature, as a conceptual act of perception (of the environment, of the artistic medium, of the self), as an expression of reflection of longings and the unconscious, or as the bearer of cultural rituals.
