In October-December 2019, this exhibition took place at Rubin Museum in Tel Aviv. The works in the exhibition have been donated by the best Israeli artists in the fields of plastic art and were offered for sale at the end of the exhibition, with proceeds going to fund the activities of the center, as well as the construction of an international high school for music on the Keshet Eilon campus.

At the conclusion of the exhibition at the Reuven Museum several works were transferred to Kibbutz Eilon, to be exhibited in the foyer of the Bar-Uryan Concert Hall in Keshet Eilon.

To the yellowed pages reverberating musical tunes with their familiar signs and scales‭, ‬artists added another visual layer‭: ‬whether lengthwise‭, ‬across the page‭, ‬or diagonally‭, ‬hinted or obvious‭, ‬in black and white‭, ‬forceful colors or soft-hued‭, ‬with birds or other imaginative creatures‭, ‬in color stains or contours or both‭, ‬folded‭, ‬glued together or with scorched edges‭, ‬abstract or figurative and sometimes with touches of humor.‮

Over sixty noted artists transformed the familiar sheets into original works of art and participate in the current exhibition, demonstrating ‬the affinity between music and the visual arts‭. ‬This long-standing tradition comprises in all its‭ ‬manifold manifestations‭ ‬“two languages that have no need for words to express their message‭, ‬yet both possess the powerful capacity to stimulate our senses”‭ ‬as noted by Yoav Gottesman‭, ‬one of the driving forces behind the exhibition‭.‬

We would like to thank the generous artists and the managements of the Reuven Museum and of Christie's Israel for their assisting the Keshet Eilon Music Center.
