Naama Tsabar's Interactive Sound Sculptures Challenge Minimalist Legacy at Shulamit Nazarian

Naama Tsabar's exhibition titled 'Inversions' is hosted at Shulamit Nazarian in Los Angeles from January 10 to February 29, 2020. The showcase includes interactive sound sculptures, featuring her Works on Felt series (2012) with felt panels and piano wires, alongside Transition works (2015) that utilize deconstructed guitar amplifiers. The new Inversions series incorporates stringed instruments into the walls of the gallery. Influenced by Minimalist artists such as Robert Morris and Agnes Martin, the exhibition employs female and gender-nonconforming musicians to confront male dominance. While Tsabar's craftsmanship reflects luthier techniques, some pieces exhibit flaws. Certain installations allow visitor interaction under supervision. Jonathan Griffin reviewed the exhibition in ArtReview's March 2020 issue, noting its sensuality and questioning its artistic intent.
