“Curated” by Social Networks

Curated” by Social Networks


An project by Beam Collective, Tel Aviv, Israel in protest of censorship of Human Body in Social Networks,


29th of August 2020 – 03th of October 2020

Five works of mine which were censored "curated" on social media platforms such as Facebook and You Tube are include in the project/exhibition 

For the last decade, different Social Networks became the main platforms for artists to promote and sell their works, yet, a huge group of the artists is ostracized and denied access to those platforms. 
The policies are absurd and reflect views that are better suited to the XIX than XXI century. The artworks removed by the Social Networks are the images that hang freely in the museums and galleries and presented in numerous exhibitions and shows without any controversy. “Neo Victorianism” conservative movements attempt to redefine the line between pornography and art with desire to define any image of human body as pornographic.

DA ! Art-Award and exhibition


DA ! Art-Award and exhibition - Düsseldorf's secular art award
16.09.2020 – 23.08.20 / Tue-Sun 11-18 h / 
Opening 15.08.2020 , 18 h. / Awards ceremony 23.08.2020, 15 h
Stadtmuseum Düsseldorf,  Berger Allee 2, 40213 Düsseldorf, Germany

The DA ! Art Award is presented every two years by the Düsseldorf Reconnaissance Service under a changing theme. The wants to inspire artists to take a critical look at religion and irrationalism. The nominated works will be presented to the public in a one-week exhibition in the Düsseldorf City Museum. Topic in 2020: ... does not work beyond the placebo effect!
2020 is about deceptive beliefs. Whether homeopathy and Bach flower therapy, religion or esoteric promises of salvation: pseudo medicine and religious belief can work. Thus, a prayer can convey strength and confidence that a medically ineffective drug can promote recovery. But these effects have nothing to do with the intervention of God / Yahweh / Allah, nor do they - in the case of homeopathy - result from the fictitious memory of the water. Rather, psycho social and cultural factors are responsible for these effects. And what also applies to globules always applies: no effect beyond the placebo effect.
