Quote of Note | Ori Gersht
Ori Gersht, “Pomegranate” (2006). Courtesy Noga Gallery of Contemporary Art.
“‘Pomegranate,’ started with my imagining a bullet going through the fruit and causing it to bleed. My initial associations were with pomegranates in old masters painting and their Judeo-Christian symbolism. A [Juan] Sánchez Cotán painting and [Harold] Edgerton photograph then emerged from my unconscious. The final film is a fusion of these three elements.
For the production, I worked with a film-commissioning group in London called Film and Video Umbrella.
