Issued in conjunction with a 2013 exhibition of photography and video from 21 Israeli artists. "Revolves around the notion of land, which in Israel has always been synonymous with Israel, as much a concept as it is a physical measure. ... [Takes] a look at Israel through the intellectually and emotionally invested eyes of some of its most remarkable artists. Their work gives voice to a sense of unsettlement and existential threat through the expression of internal and external discord, as the artists explore Israel and Israeli politics and culture with urgency, criticality, questions, and an abiding, if complicated, love for the land."
