It was very interesting having the artist give us insight into his process and the thought behind his work. I've admired Adi Ness's work for years and now have an even better understanding of what he is about. The only downside was the usual lame wannabes during the Q&A. Mr. Ness was brilliant the way he shut it down after four questions. Thank you!Written on Feb 03 2011
Also, why was this so poorly attended. Where were the throngs of supposed artists and art students in this city? They should have been lined up for an opportunity to hear such an important artist speak.

Description
Adi Nes epitomizes a generation of Israeli artists whose work challenges convention. Nes’ photographs recreate scenes from famous paintings, historical events and biblical stories, placing them within the context of contemporary Israeli society. Shrewd and meticulous, his highly provocative photographs exude homoeroticism and arouse discussion around issues of social justice.
