AM I SAFE? The question is as complex as it is elementary. The answer depends on a number of factors that concern all of the mosaic stones of our current living situation. We cannot get an overview of all of them; not all of them matter equally. And yet we can answer quickly, because in the end it essentially points to the individual feeling of each of us: “Do I feel safe right now?” Ariel Reichman raises this question as a kind of preface to his exhibition.

For his fourth exhibition with PSM, South African born, Israeli artist Ariel Reichman has installed the interactive light sculpture I AM (NOT) SAFE in front of the gallery building paying tribute to the obvious current occasion. Everyone is welcome to leave his or her answer and impact on the work via https://iamnotsafe.digital/.

This is Worse, the title of his exhibition, however, refers to an etching from Francisco Goya’s series The Disasters of War (1810-1820). Reichman appropriated some of Goya’s motifs by redrawing them while removing the originally depicted dead bodies. First works from this series as well as the painting series Military Landscapes and the Ribbon Paintings are installed at PSM’s exhibition spaces and documented on its website.
