This event has ended.

Alona Rodeh’s diverse practice uses a wide range of media to construct time-based installations that are often described as “performance without performers.” Through her work, Rodeh tests systems and cultural phenomena by agitating objects, spaces and situations into choreographed, extreme and often humorous performances.

Barking Dogs Don’t Bite (2012) is a video that showcases the same vacant gallery space activated anew. Filmed from two different points of view, the gallery enters into a cyclical process that seems to be self-inflicted. One by one, all of the defense mechanisms of the empty space are set off and a smoke bomb erupts. As the drama unfolds, passers-by pay no attention, leaving the viewer as the sole witness to the orchestrated absurdity.
