There are so many new shows opening this weekend, which is exciting as the past few weeks were a bit slow. I’ve selected 10 galleries that are opening new exhibitions you shouldn’t miss. This week I’ve also added my small explanation about each show.

If you’re enjoying this newsletter, you might also like my Instagram page called “Art Galleries in Tel Aviv”, where I post daily pictures of art events taking place in our gorgeous city.

“When the Visitors will determine how much to pay.
Production costs will be displayed in front of them,
Only one element will remain invisible: the value of an idea?”
