The exhibition itself unfolds a rich and complex realm of consciousness, marking one hundred years of Surrealism, and offers a renewed reading of dreams, memory, and creativity through approximately 180 artworks from diverse worlds. It opens a gateway to a world where consciousness is freed from the constraints of time and logic, allowing the viewer to dwell in the twilight zone between wakefulness and dreaming.
Inspired by these realms, this cinematic tribute was created, featuring about 20 selected films. These are cinematic works that explore the boundaries of the tangible world, moving between dream and fantasy, between consciousness and psychoanalysis, and between visual surrealism and poetic cinematic expression. From the classics of Buñuel, Fellini, and Bergman, through groundbreaking animated films and wild underground creations, to contemporary films that delve into the human psyche, memory, and dreams - the films in this program illuminate the gaps between inner and outer worlds, between the visible and the hidden, and dismantle familiar boundaries of time, narrative, and character.
The opening event will include an introductory lecture by the exhibition's curator, Dr. Adina Kamien. In addition, artists whose works are featured in the exhibition will introduce films of their choice. These encounters will offer unique insights into the intersections of cinema, art, and consciousness.
We invite you to join a journey between reality and imagination, between awareness and dreams — to move through near and distant realms and surrender to the enchanting power of cinema.
