In an almost empty gallery that serves as a kind of sounding board, spirits resonate throughout the space, evoking the past, hinting at the present, and warning us about the future.
An interview given by Yitzhak Rabin in 1994, about a year before his assassination, to the American journalist Charlie Rose is transformed here into a sound installation comprising eight musical-dramatic movements. Artist and musician Daniel Kiczales deconstructs the interview and reconstructs it by means of a musical composition, arrangement for vocal ensemble, and division into subjects which, despite the thirty years that have passed, seem more relevant than ever.
