- Book Synopsis
- Donâ t wat to. Alright, here we go. Writing this is embarrassing. A trip to palestine, the West bank; Gaza would be best. It all seemed to fit and be a good plan. The reports on the Israeli attack on Gaza were shocking. The pointlessness of it, the feeling of powerlessness about it, caused a temporary involvement. Not with the people, but with the apathy concerned, the apathy of oneâ s personal situation. Commitment is an exercise against intertia. Art has insprirations as one of the social players and as a medium of research to bring about changes, among others by a method of critical reflection. This aspiration is based on a feeling of involvement, but what is the range of such a critical attitude? Visual artist Jack Segbars navigates in his visits to palestine between involvement and scepsis. The questions this raises are: what are the possibilities of artistic commitment? And in a general sense: how does the aesthetic relate to reality? Text and idea: Jack Segbars Text editing: Carinda Strangio Translation: Willem Groenewegen Photography: Jack Segbars Graphic design: Remco van Bladel i. c. w. Lisa Thissen Printing: Lecturis
