About one hundred renowned Israeli and international artists donated original pieces to support one mission: Safeguarding Israel's Democracy
"Where there is no freedom of expression, art dies, and with it dies the spirit of the people." Menashe Kadishman
Brothers and Sisters in Arms for Democracy is committed to safeguarding the State of Israel as a Jewish, democratic and egalitarian country, in accordance with the values and spirit of the Declaration of Independence. To that end, we are launching a comprehensive civic initiative to ensure the upcoming elections are fully accessible to all eligible voters and that each can freely and fully exercise their democratic right.
In solidarity with this endeavour, members of Israel's art community, its artists, curators, and gallerists, have joined to support it.
A quiet sale. An undeniable impact.
Art for Democracy is the initiative of artists from Israel and well beyond who have donated their work to an online sale. All are united in the belief that democracy is essential to freedom of expression, and that without it art will never thrive.
