Dor Zlekha Levy and Aviad Zinemanas’s ‘Maqamat’ will be on view at the Tel Aviv Museum of Art until May 13, 2017.

Maqamat, a work made in cooperation between visual artist Dor Zlekha Levy and musician Aviad Zinemanas, was born from their joint passion to reclaim the Arab music of early 20th-century Iraq. Although they come from different disciplines, Zlekha Levy and Zinemanas share a similar technique: they sample old materials in order to charge them with a new meaning, while adding further layers and weaving them into a new narrative. The sounds enrich the landscape delineated in the gallery space with their complexity, while the visual images imbue the sounds with tangibility and form. The result is a dynamic, multi-layered work that draws an imagined environment around itself, a shade of memory from “there” through a perpetual movement “here.”
