We are honored to present an intimate exhibition by Bar Plivazky. The exhibition features a selection of her existing work alongside new pieces created exclusively for this show.
Opening Night: Live Painting Session with Bar Plivazky
Bar Plivazky (b. 1998) is a figurative draftsman working unapologetically within academic representation—not out of nostalgia, but pursuit. For her, this tradition is either a moment in art history or the closest thing we have to truth. Either way, it is a discipline she is determined to master.
Her recent work collapses hierarchy in the studio. Models pose as themselves or as mythological figures, reclaiming a form of portraiture once reserved for royalty, religion, and power. The focus is the body, the individual, and the tension between freedom and control.
In a moment where anything can be declared art, Plivazky chooses gravity over escape. Her practice is rooted in observation, repetition, failure, and correction—placing each line in strict relation to perspective and reality. For her, discipline is not conservative but radical.
On opening night, experience this process live as the work unfolds in real time—an intimate encounter with craft, risk, and the radical act of looking.

This experience is built on clear boundaries. There is no required physical participation from the audience. There is no touch without invitation. You may observe. You may look away.
You may leave the space at any time.
