We’re excited to present the second solo exhibition by Israeli artist Nahum Tevet (b. 1946) at the gallery. Nahum Tevet’s poetic sculptural language is based upon the connections between painting, sculpture and architecture. His sculptures and installations challenge the legacy of Minimalism and Conceptual Art.
Tevet has been the subject of major survey exhibitions at both the Israel Museum in Jerusalem and the Tel Aviv Museum. His work has been part of exhibitions worldwide since 1975, such as numerous solo and group exhibitions in Europe and the United States, among which Documenta 8 (1987), the Sao Paulo Biennale (1994), the Biennale of Lyon (1997) and the Venice Biennale (2003), but also museum shows at the Museum Moderner Kunst Stiftung Ludwig in Vienna (1997), the Carnegie International (1999), the Museo d’Arte Contemporanea Roma (2008) and the Kunstmuseum Bochum (2015).
His work is included in many important museum collections including MOMA, New York, the Philadelphia Museum of Art, Portland Art Museum, the Ludwig Foundation, Vienna, the Kaiser Wilhelm Museum, Krefeld, FRAC Bretagne, the Israel Museum, Jerusalem and the Tel Aviv Museum of Art.
