The case is the second solo exhibition of Ron Amir Hezi Cohen Gallery. Amir's work process is accompanied by a continuous relationship with the communities in marginal areas of political, social and economic factors, and the current exhibition continues his work in prison and mechanisms that produce physically and mentally.

Amir chooses to use a large format analog camera, practice slow and cumbersome and requires collaboration with his subjects and makes them dependent. The works were taken around which operated mechanisms of repression and control: Couple sitting on a mattress in a makeshift room in an abandoned factory; Illegally employed as construction workers work on the site in a group photo, a group of men outside the detention facility Sands and others. Amir's occupation but rather the reactions and the products emerging from constraints, together with the format qualities, vitality and richness reveal unexpected.

* Gallery exhibition will be held on Friday, 03/02/2017, at 12:00.
