Barry Frydlender at MoMA: The Heeb Review
In Barry Frydlender: Place and Time at New York’s Museum of Modern Art, the Tel Aviv photographer’s meticulous panoramic images depict the competing identities in everyday Israeli life. Although the exhibit is small—only 10 photographs in total—the issues it addresses are large and the effect of the over-sized color pictures is powerful. Each piece, while seamlessly assembled, is the digital composite of many individual frames shot at different times; Frydlender’s methodology makes each scene fragile, each moment in time ephemeral.
The colorful “Pitzutziya” (2002) captures the interior of a convenience store stocked with foodstuffs from all over the globe—a reference to Israel’s assimilation of world cultures. And images such as “Jabar Coffee Shop” (2003), which depicts Arab men sitting around drinking coffee in East Jerusalem, reveal a scene usually hidden. Frydlender’s ability to maneuver effortlessly between the layered dimensions of his native country proves his hand deft and his eye subtly incisive. -KAREN BOOKATZ
