Nassima Landau

To mark their two-year anniversary, Nassima Landau Art Foundation is staging a Unit London take-over of their Tel Aviv art space. Presenting an expansive group exhibition that showcases 22 leading artists from our international roster, the project aims to create a bridge between Tel Aviv and London.

Since its inception, Unit London has sought to connect the public with some of the world’s most innovative talent. We promote works of art on a meritocratic basis through a constantly evolving and dynamic exhibition programme. Equally, Nassima Landau, the first art space of its kind in Tel Aviv, is dedicated to providing a platform for the highest standard of international contemporary art in Israel.

A selection of highlights from the artist presentation include Seth Armstrong, whose paintings explore residential neighbourhoods in Los Angeles. His works, characterised by harmonious colour palettes and inspired by Impressionism, visualise the interplay between light and shadow. Belgian artist Kristof Santy’s vibrant artworks are influenced by folk art and customs, finding freedom in the expressive painting of everyday surroundings. Ziping Wang’s artworks are brimming with colourfully fragmented configurations, combining consumer imagery with references to Old Master works to comment on our visually saturated contemporary society. Nigerian artist Emma Odumade’s mixed media works explore themes of birth, life and identity through the use of black tea which is consumed in many Nigerian homes. In her recent work, Etsu Egami focuses on the way that communication has become more complex in light of the diversity of human exchanges. She uses the symbol of the rainbow to represent the path from our limited perspective to a vision of a deeper reality.
