Yael Bartana Hosted by Joseph del Pesco in conversation with Shana Penn


For the second Trouble Feature, Joseph del Pesco presented video work by Israeli artist Yael Bartana. The second of a three part series, Mur I Wieza (2009), portrays a group of men and women building Poland’s first kibbutz. The type of prefabricated structure depicted in the video was developed and implemented during the Arab revolt of 1936-39 to enable Jews to take control of Palestinian territory.
