[ART]. Dror Daum, Aya Breuer, Sergio Edelstein, Guy Ben-Ner. "Dror Daum: Scared to Live / Scared to Die [English, Hebrew]." Tel Aviv: Tel Aviv Center for Contemporary Art, 2014. First edition. English language. Hardcover with gray boards and black spine. Art texts with full-color illustrations. 90 pp. Small stains on front board. Shelf-wear. Use. Ink inscription on front endpaper. Text clean. Very Good Plus. OCLC: 904256732. ISBN: 9789657463239. " Exhibition catalog for two solo exhibitions by Dror Daum: 'Scared to Die' and 'Scared to Live' that took place September 18 - December 4, 2014, at the Center for Contemporary Art in Tel Aviv. Daum presents two solo exhibitions at the Center for Contemporary Art, Scared to Die and Scared to Live. The latter addresses modern life's fears, threats, and angst: diseases, accidents, earthquakes, murders, etc. The former focuses on the equally threatening and complex issues of courting and mating: loneliness, jealousy, and their cycles of frustration. In Daum's own words, his works 'deal with the existential anxiety present in Western culture, with contemporary memento mori, and with our culture's inherent potential for danger and destruction.' Daum's education at Bezalel Academy's Department of Photography funneled his creativity into the field of photography in terms of medium, format, printing, framing, and mounting. However, at best, his practice can be defined as photography-informed. Instead of adhering to photography's traditional mode of going out to the world to hunt for images, Daum programmatically avoids conventional processes by seeing photography as an image in our retina, or alternatively as an object in the world, and changing the reciprocal relations between photography and space.".…
