Dialogues: The tapes of Debel Gallery

Gallery Debel operated in Jerusalem in the years when the city was a pilgrimage center for curators, journalists and art enthusiasts and even than it was exceptional in the Jerusalem landscape. Etienne and Ruth Debel represented known artists, and discovered new ones to the world. Yair Garbuz, Raffi Lavie, Gabriel Cohen, Yocheved Weinfeld, Maya Cohen Levy, Daniela Passal and many others presented their work at the gallery at the end of the 70s and beginning of the 80s.

While curating different exhibitions, Ruth used to interview the exhibiting artists. She recorded their conversations and transcribed them .

In collaboration between Ruth Debel and Mamuta at the Daniela Passal art and media center, selected interviews were bind together into a booklet named ‘Dialogue’.

“Publishing the interviews positions them as documents for Israeli art field in general, and in the Jerusalem art scene in particular. As study and research material, but also as a tribute to the action of our colleagues from a different period, and as an attempt to connect between our work in the present to theirs, in the past’
