Meet the Artist – Shay Zilberman

Magasin III Jaffa Books series of meetings with artists will host the artist Shay Zilberman to launch his new artist book Itinerarium.

The title of the book refers to a writing tradition that began in ancient Rome – Itinerarium, which detaches itself from maps and draws the world through verbal descriptions. During the Middle Ages, the concept also referred to visual descriptions of the world that do not seek to represent its material manifestations, but rather connection points between geopolitics and the worlds of imagination. The book consists of five chapters that constitute possible internal categories of the work process, and within them sequences of collages in compositions that can be thematic and associative at the same time.
