Diptych: Dirty Bomb Gold, 2008, Acrylic and spray paint on two canvases, 70X100 cm. each. Each signed. Exhibition: ”Make Room”, ST-ART, Jaffa, Israel, May-June 2009. Provenance: ST-ART Collection, Israel’s artist incubator project. Items 213-218 are from the collection of ST-ART, Israel’s artist incubator project, founded by Serge Tiroche. In summer 2009 ST-ART held in its Jaffa residence the first gallery exhibition for Tel-Aviv’s leading street artists. Titled “Make Room”, the exhibition was highly successful in introducing their works to a large group of collectors. In the fall of 2009 ST-ART organized the first Urban Art auction at Tiroche Auction House, which enjoyed media attention as well as commercial success, and raised awareness amongst both established and new collectors. A second Urban Art auction was held in Tiroche in 2010. In August 2011 the exhibition “INSIDE JOB – STREET ART IN TEL AVIV” opened at the Tel-Aviv Museum, Helena Rubinstein Pavilion, accompanied by a comprehensive book. ST-ART lent support to the exhibition by providing advice and lending works from its collection. All six artists in this auction participated in the exhibition, which closed on December 31, 2011. “Inside Job” was a huge success in terms of attendance. A major museum exhibition of this kind firmly establishes these artists as part of the canon of contemporary Israeli Art.
