ALEKSANDRA KOSSOWSKA – 11TH INTERNATIONAL PHOTO FESTIVAL PHOTO IS:RAEL 

Tel Aviv 27.03.-06.04.2024

The festival took place from March 27 to April 6, 2024, at the Enav Cultural Center and Gan Ofer in Tel Aviv. This annual event, organized by PHOTO IS"RAEL, showcases dozens of exhibitions from both Israel and abroad. Today, Photo IS:RAEL has become one of the most important and largest events of its kind in the world.

 

Due to the ongoing war, the festival, originally scheduled to start in early November 2023, was postponed to this spring. This year's edition featured as many as 50 exhibitions, with a predominant focus on the theme of war, including the conflict in Ukraine, presented through the personal stories of people dramatically uprooted from their environments.


Among the exhibited works were photographs by our collective's artist, Aleksandra Kossowska, who supported the humanitarian organization SmartAid

SmartAid in Ukraine in 2022. Her subjects are individuals who face the daily challenges of life in the shadow of war. Here, we do not find images of direct clashes on the front lines, but rather the struggle with the emotions of evacuated families, seniors, and disabled individuals—longing, fear, and uncertainty.
