Max Israeliana – Book and Exhibition

Max Israeliana is a research of postmodernism in Israel, derived from Pax Israeliana, another Public School project. While Pax Israeliana references ’Pax Romana’ and aims to catalog Israeli modernism, Max Israeliana nods to maximalism and Americana. The project looks at Israeli postmodernism, and tries to identify its aesthetic and influences. The year that separates the two periods is 1977, when there was a shift from a social experiment to a society, abandoning its European, socialist origins for a more individualist future.
