Object history

From Temple Mount, 1995, The Israel Museum, Jerusalem, Billy Rose Pavillion.

On Temple Mount in Jerusalem is a large rock (housed under the golden Dome of the Rock). This rock is the subject of many myths and beliefs, both Jewish and Muslim. It is mainly due to this rock and the history of this mountain that Jerusalem was and is holy to both religions and it is this holy site that is one of the top hurdles on the path to lasting peace between Israel and Palestine, and between Judaism and Islam. I simulated the lifting of this stone and placed "its absence" in my show. In contrast to the centralized monolithic temple at the Dome of the mono-Rock and also to the hand-sized idealistic Intifada stones, stones can be found in the form of gravel covering the ground of the outdoor Billy Rose Sculpture Garden at the Israel Museum, where there are many layers of artifacts from many eras and cultures. I invited the public to throw this gravel (fragments of stones, fragments of rocks) at a high-up Tambourine-Eye.
