Documentary testimony has become a cultural source for different artistic expressions in Israel. By deepening its representation of the meta-space contemporary Israeli films, literature, video art and photography gained universal meaning and world recognition. Photographed stories and still images are an important critical source which echoes the expressive depth of a vibrant culture. They illustrate the vicissitudes of fate by critically inscribing the individual state of affairs and play a significant role by infusing essential meaning into the landscape of memory and forgetfulness.
