GALLERIA PACK is proud to remind its patrons that the Israeli artist OFRI CNAANI has won the Twister project, a prize organized by the network of Lombardy museums for contemporary art. Twister is an invite-only, international competition for the creation of ten site-specific artworks that will be bought by the permanent collections of the ten museum spaces spread out across this Italian region. Ofri Cnaani will create an artwork that connects with this network in an effort to highlight the interaction between museums and the region. Cnaani's artwork will be composed of two parts. The first, DREAMS and DRAMAS, is a series of site-specific videos that are integrated with the architecture present in each specific location. The second, ONE-MOMENT-MONUMENTUM, is a project that calls for public participation through judging and comments on the artworks exhibited.
