Oren Fischer | Running Errands

In an outlandish display of unusual movements, the artist’s lanky figure forcefully traverses familiar public spaces, including halls in banks, municipal buildings, the Ministry of Interior, art galleries, the Western Wall, and the Kaplan protest site. The body’s acute, explosive motions disrupt the bureaucratic environment, communicating feelings of frustration and suppressed anger within these dull, opaque routines spaces. The contrast between the artist’s expressive movements and the subdued surroundings combines humor, satire, and political criticism while questioning art’s ability to impact public space and the role of artists in times like these.
