YAEL DAVIDS- One Is Always a Plural

For the exhibition One Is Always a Plural, artist Yael Davids has selected art from the Migros Museum für Gegenwartskunst’s collection to bring into dialogue with her own works. She engages with the institution and its collection in an unusual manner. The foundational ideas of the Feldenkrais Method play a key role in the design of the exhibition and selection of works. This holistic body-oriented technique believes that movement principles form the basis of every human action, and it aims to expand self-image through carefully performed movement sequences. Davids examines the potential of the Feldenkrais approach in a completely different area, in the experience of art. She invites visitors not only to “see” art but also to find another way of accessing it through body and movement.

Over the course of the exhibition, the audience is cordially encouraged to actively participate in classes, led by professional Feldenkrais teachers. Participants will have the opportunity to visit the exhibition before and after the lessons.
