Links: Iron Sculptures

Sponsored in part by the Israel Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Division for Cultural & Scientific Relations, Links is an exhibition of 19 iron sculptures by renowned Israeli artist, Orna Ben-Ami. Her sculptures convey thought-provoking contrasts: war and peace, memory and forgetting, private and collective. Critically acclaimed for the surprising contrast between the material and themes of the sculpture, Links presents a collection replete with personal content that intersects with collective memories.
