On a découvert Adi Nes à l'Israel Museum à Jérusalem avec « La Cène» en Novembre dernier, et on a vraiment été impressionné par son travail. A la manière d'un réalisateur de film, Adi Nes compose méticuleusement ses images. De chacune d'elles se dégagent une « inquiétante étrangeté », mais aussi d'une recherche autour de la question identitaire et d'une culture israélienne en constante tension. Puisant autant dans les grands mythes que dans la vie ordinaire, la démarche d'Adi Nes donne naissance à des images d'une humanité puissante, à couper le souffle.

From each of them emerge an « unsettling strangeness » but also a research about the constant tension between the issues of identity and the Israelien culture. Using great myths and everyday life topics, Adi Nes is giving birth to pictures of powerful humanity and breathtaking photographies. He agreed to give us a special interview.
