The Jerusalem Show,
Outside the Gates of Heaven
The Jerusalem Show (‘Ala Abwab Al Janna) borrows its English title from the vivacious and atypical formats of the Saturday Night Live show and the Muppet Show, whereas its Arabic title ‘Ala Abwab Al Janna (Outside the Gates of Heaven) references the sacramental veneration that is bestowed on Jerusalem. A similar ludicrous dichotomy is ostensible to Jerusalem’s inhabitants (including us at Al-Ma’mal Foundation).

Frontiers
Frontiers (2008) is not about timeless images, but to call attention to the ways in which entire populations are being impacted through time. It is an unbearable yet very real spectacle on the TV screens of the world, presented like an addictive justification. By presenting the pictures in diptych format, Elbaz offers a dialogue between them while simultaneously creating a necessary tension for the work's interpretation. It is not only about confronting present-day reality in its truth, but to re-situated the self in the projection of one's own injured humanity.
