“An Asana Moment” at the MUZA Museum, March 30, 2024 / The Eretz Israel Museum | March 30, 2024 / The Eretz Israel Museum |
Cabessa presents a new video work “Wonderful and Gone” at the exhibition “An Asana Moment“, curated by Raz Samira at the MUZA Museum. The exhibition’s title comes from yoga asanas, postures that align the body during practice and meditation. Asanas help harmonize and quieten the mind and focus awareness. They are known to release pain and to heal; when performed mindfully, with attention to the breath, they can break down stress and mental obstacles. Asanas bring relief and a sense of satisfaction and tranquility. In this exhibition, we wish to introduce some of the qualities of yoga asanas into our reality, if only for a moment. | |

Some of them are living artists, some deceased – either murdered on October 7th or died during the ongoing war. The new exhibition wishes to frame a current situation and to record the unique creative burst that is well felt among Israelis since the war began. | |
LIFETIME ACHIEVEMENT AWARD by the MINISTRY OF CULTURE, May 8th, 2023 / Israel | May 8th, 2023 / Israel |
Miriam Cabessa has won the Israeli Ministry of Culture 2022 Lifetime Achievement Award. “Cabessa proposes the movement of her body as the last place the world could overpower, the ultimate barricade of the self. It is not cogito, nor a critical approach in the conventional sense; but it is a very strong and principled point of resistance to control and surveillance. It is the body that knows, the inner rhythm, the eroticism, the libido – and they cannot be dominated or appropriated by the coercive systems of the state or cultural institutions. The mere existence of this place extends hope as to the feasibility of resistance and rebellion. The manifestations of these personal proficiencies are, in Cabessa’s case, outstanding in their peculiarity, and consequently highly credible in the contention they propose; rebellion is launched from the specific erotica of the body.” Miriam Cabessa: Replicated Intimacy, Venice Biennale 1997, Israeli Pavilion Curator and text: Sarah Breitberg-Semel | |
