Dani Karavan. Narrative of forms in the cityscape

Abstract

The article analyses the form of Dani Karavan’s sculptures in the context of urban space in which greenery and water are present. In the spatial compositions of the Israeli sculptor – large-scale interventions into the public space – water and greenery are used as constituent elements. In addition to aesthetic values, they – along with sculptural forms and other elements of the landscape – carry symbolic values: commemoration of historical events, or values such as environmental protection, tolerance and human rights. Elementary architectural forms, greenery and water, create a coherent narrative system in Karavan’s works that increases the value of their surroundings and creates the genius loci.
