Destination X is a striking surrealistic still-life, one of Bergner’s finest small scale etchings. This work beautifully demonstrates one of Bergner’s repeated themes concerning the Jewish immigrants who arrived to Israel with their personal belongings. These belongings – dishes, beddings, furniture, toys – are personified under the influence of the Surrealism, and create an allegoric image of a massive and crowded exodus.
Rare piece.
