About Our Artists: Dede Bandaid & Nitzan Mintz
In this exhibition, the two multidisciplinary street artists, present a new extensive body of work they created together over the past year.
After exhibiting and creating projects all over the world, the two return to Israel with their largest solo exhibition to date, spanning over the gallery's two floors and featuring over 50 new works. The two artists display artwork that took shape over the last year, but also incorporate previous works they created years ago, some more than a decade ago. The starting point for the decision to work with their art archive was the destruction of a home. The have been working for the past four years in a south Tel Aviv studio that they renovated with their own hands, converted it from an abandoned brothel into a studio and living space. They found out earlier this year that they will have to move out due to a dramatic rent increase.
