Under "Grobman, the authors came up with this: they are most accurately reproduce some pictures sixties Mikhail Grobman paints glow under ultraviolet light.

They sent pictures from the opening day of the project "Grobman. Photos by Masha Rubin. Here's what they write:
 

In the "Kishon Gallery, Tel Aviv, opened an exhibition dedicated to Mikhail Grobmanu. Twenty young artists with the help of fluorescent dyes have made accurate copies of the most famous classical works of the Second Russian Avant-Garde and highlighted them in a dark room with ultraviolet light. Thus the emergence of two opposing processes - appropriatsii known works on the one hand and total solidarity with the famous author - on the other side.
Savvy viewers got the intellectual pleasure, inexperienced could not figure out where it ends and where Grobman appropriirovanie begins his work. The exhibition was accompanied by an incredible gathering of people, and no wonder - Grobman is a symbolic figure of Israeli art, who came there in 1971 from the Moscow avant-garde circle.

Concept: Z. Cherkasy, A. Leo, A. Lukashevsky, Max Lomberg
Curator: Rufina Valski

is Grobman iconic figure of Israeli art

What's the proper symbolic meaning of this piit? What does this sign?

For example, Oscar Yakovlevich Rabin - a sign against unofficial artists the opportunity to exhibit in public spaces of the Soviet Union. Yu Zharkikh symbol supposedly semi-criminal methods of the authorities of this country against the same artists. I. Kabakov - a sign of new times, an artist assigned to represent 1 /6 of the land.

What Grobman? Only a very unfortunate name of "The Second Russian Avant-garde" causing ridicule, but a list of "best" artists, in which he had prudently put yourself?

If it is an iconic figure of Israeli art, then why not in the exhibitions of the art of the state of Israel abroad?
