Hadassa Goldvicht's is an interdisciplinary artist, writer and lecturer.
Her work explores the relationship between language and ritual, reading and rewriting the emotional/social/political content written in the body. Her works include large scale public interventions, working together with members of communities and institutions, in the public domain, alongside works created with her own family members, using sensibilities that belong in the private domain into the public realm, and vice versa. Her video, installations, and photographs explore the relationship between language and hierarchy, ritual and care taking, while attempting to read and rewrite the emotional and social/political texts written in the body. She received her BFA from the Rhode Island School of Design (2004) and an MFA from the School of Visual Arts in New York (2007). Her work has been exhibited widely, including The Israel Museum, Jerusalem; The Fondazione Querini Stampalia, Venice; The Jewish Museum, New York; The Tel Aviv Museum; The Beijing Biennial, The Zacheta National Gallery of Art, Warsaw; The National Library, Jerusalem. Her works are included in both private and public collections, including The Jewish Museum, NY, The Israel Museum, The Frankfort Jewish Museum, The Tel Aviv Museum, The Fondazione Querini Stampalia, and The Center for Book Arts in NY. Past artist residencies include Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture, The Lower Manhattan Cultural Council Workspace Residency, New York University, Urban Glass, The Center for Book Arts, NY, Mamuta Pasal Media Center, Jerusalem, The OWL Lab, Jerusalem, and The Peleh Fund Residency, Berkeley, CA.
