Tonight, the Tel Aviv Museum is hosting a special exhibition featuring a selection of works acquired by French television host Arthur from Israeli artists. 

This initiative comes in the wake of the events of October 7th and is intended to support the cultural community in Israel, which has faced ostracism from museums and galleries abroad.

Arthur's decision to purchase these artworks is both a personal and political statement, aiming to provide solidarity and support to Israeli artists affected by the current cultural boycott in various parts of the world. By bringing these works to light in such a prestigious venue, the exhibition serves as an effort to amplify Israeli voices in the global art scene and counteract the exclusion felt by many in the country's cultural sector.

The exhibition is expected to draw significant attention, not only for its artistic content but also for its underlying message of resilience and support for the arts during challenging times.
