Curator: Yael Gilat

Mincha , the title of the exhibition by Michal Shachnai-Yaakobi, relates the context of the cult of the fallen in Israel, which was designed as a component of the "national religion". In her artistic work, Michal Shachnai-Yaakobi examines the discourse of bereavement and commemoration in Israel, his rhetoric, and the open and hidden ways in which the bereaved family was established among the families who lost their loved ones in military circumstances. As a person who grew up as the "IDF orphan," a term that prioritizes the private mourning to the national one, the artist seeks to examine how these moves set the foundation for the national memory enterprise and at the same time shaped the status of the bereaved, in accordance with two main practices: And the delivery of memorial letters in specially illustrated and illustrated envelopes, accompanied by gifts for bereaved families.
In her present presentation, Michal Shachnai-Yaakobi brings together the "products" produced on both paths. This is a strange and shaky encounter, with pathos revealed in its nakedness, and thus the curtain rises above the falsehood and the pain is intensified. The role she is forced to play becomes a subjective position, from which she observes the state's bereavement, unravels what we are accustomed to seeing for granted and exposes his deliberate artificiality. Is a sample of fragments from the official texts (letters and offerings), and from those internalized as conforms (sitting arrangements in memorial ceremonies and bereavement choreography in school ceremonies), uses them as a kind of " ready made " culture and returns them to discourse through lyrical, ironic, Meditative. The holiness is taken away from them. That "privileged sanctity" that she wants to take from her national role as a "bereaved daughter."
Thus, far from the use of the private grief for the purposes of justifying the law, the heroism breaks down from the pathos, and represents a personal version of anti-pathos, which at the same time is an expression of personal grief, which has no consolation.
