Noam Alon, a contemporary art curator and critic based between Paris and Tel Aviv, will discuss the main topics from his thesis in the Sociology of Art (EHESS PARIS) dealing with the relations between artists and curators and the tension between authority and authorship.

Can the curation of an exhibition be considered an artistic action? And if so, how does it affect the artist and his creation?

Noam will also present recent exhibitions he curated in Paris, aside from case studies from historical exhibitions

The exhibition The Shortest Way to Happiness curated by Noam is currently on view at the Givon Art Forum, Elroy 3 Neve Tzedek (Friday-Saturday 11:00-14:00)
