Nahum Tevet's 'Leçons de peinture' Blurs Sculpture and Painting

exhibition · 2026-04-23

Nahum Tevet's latest exhibition, 'Leçons de peinture', explores the imperceptible boundary between postmodern constructivist sculpture and painting. For the past twenty years, his works have been characterized by material dismemberment elevated to a concept, leading to a substitutive construction. This studied negligence incorporates traditional elements of American minimal art and Arte Povera, evoking the kibbutz environment familiar to the artist.
