Its aim is to examine the phenomenon of post-postmodernism, gaining strength in recent years and expressing the present generation's attempt to overcome the postmodernism of the late twentieth century, as a generalized reaction to the present, crisis-ridden moment.

This exhibition is concerned with oscillation between worlds, between various opposing poles – earth and sky, the physical and the spiritual, the real and the imaginary – as an expression of the meta-modern approach.

This exhibit deals with mythological themes, which appear in the artworks of many contemporary, Israeli artists. The exhibit explores the yearning of Israeli art towards creating a dialogue with the classic, Greek mythological figures and their place in Western Art. The preoccupation is examined through the presentation of artworks from the seventies, alongside artworks from the current era.

Thus, we can highlight a new perspective of modern artwork, in light of transformation that have taken place at the local level, and in terms of effects resulting from the global art discourse.
