Ralph Gibson's diptych portrayal of Israel, a land at once deeply modern and incredibly ancientThe American photographer Ralph Gibson traveled throughout Israel and the surrounding region to create a portrait of a land where the past is vividly part of the present. The high-tech world of invention next to Torah studies. He contrasts these in two-page spreads in which color and black-and-white images face one another: ancient language in a visual dialogue with contemporary human experience.As architect Moshe Safdie writes in his accompanying text: "This is the promise and paradox of Israel, a new country in an ancient land, modernity next to regression, with abundant and creative energy and cultural output.
