 (2025) marks a decisive evolution in Libeskind’s use of collage. While the principle of assemblage remains, the act of layering has been translated into the creation of clear, precisely defined surfaces. Inspired by a 1934 German publication of so-called “non-European” flags, these works are executed in silkscreen pigment on stretched canvas, reducing the flag to its most elemental form — skeletal outlines and contours that retain their historical charge yet appear newly abstracted.

What is A Flag?

On the occasion of the High Holiday performance series, Ariel Efraim Ashbel and friends present a new iteration of “Dialectics of Departure” - a walk by Ariel Efraim Ashbel and Rachel Libeskind that traces Berlin’s Jewish history and reimagines it as a contemporary, inclusive ritual practice.

Taking place during the week of Yom Kippur, ,the holiest day in the Jewish calendar, the walk reflects on themes of atonement, renewal, and communal responsibility, following bodies of water throughout Berlin.
