Artists without Walls
Israel
April 1st documents an action that took place in April 2004 on the location of the Separation Wall in Abu Dis, a Palestinian village located in East Jerusalem. A closed circuit of two video cameras was positioned at the same spot on either side of the wall. Each camera recorded the view facing away from the wall. The cameras were connected to two video projectors, each one projecting in real time the image on the opposite side. This created a virtual window in that spot of the wall, allowing people on both sides to see each other.
