Verified profile


More than twenty years after its last exhibition in a museum in Italy, Museion presents a solo exhibition by Haim Steinbach (Rehovot, Israel, 1944), one of the most influential artists of our time. Every single day collects a selection of works from the last thirty years and includes shelves, boxes, textual works, wall paintings and large installations.

Since the mid-1970s Haim Steinbach 's artistic practice has focused on the transitory condition of the object and its meaning in art and everyday life. His work became famous in the mid-1980s thanks to the presentation of objects, selected and set up by the artist on shelves. The different objects - purchased or found - are placed according to type, number and function, activating patterns of difference, repetition and singularity. Objects are detached from their usual context and placed side by side with others: in the new context and in the new function they take on unpredictable identities. Unexpected encounters take place between the different objects on the shelves. Jason Vorhees' sneakers, teapots, soaps and mask in the film Friday the 13th can be compared to the robbers of Walter Benjamin's quote, which relieve the observer of his usual expectations and beliefs.
