Dvir Gallery Gallery in Tel Aviv
Tel Aviv Port · Contemporary programme
Editorial Profile
Dvir Gallery occupies a pivotal position within contemporary art in Tel Aviv, operating from its space in the Tel Aviv Port area while maintaining additional locations in Paris and Brussels. This tri-city structure reflects both the gallery's ambition and its practical orientation toward an international collector and institutional audience. Founded in Israel, the gallery has built a program that sustains a genuine dialogue between locally rooted artistic practices and an international roster, positioning it as one of the more outward-facing commercial spaces among galleries in Tel Aviv. Its artist list brings together established Israeli figures — including Sigalit Landau, Yudith Levin, Omer Fast, Naama Tsabar, and Dor Guez — alongside internationally recognized names such as Thomas Hirschhorn, Simon Fujiwara, Miroslaw Balka, Douglas Gordon, Latifa Echakhch, and Haim Steinbach, among others.
The curatorial direction favors conceptually grounded work across installation, video, sculpture, photography, and text-based practices, with a particular sensitivity to politically and socially engaged art. The gallery regularly facilitates institutional placements and museum-level projects for its artists: recent years have seen Yudith Levin the subject of a major retrospective at the Israel Museum in Jerusalem, works by Naama Tsabar entering the collections of Centre Pompidou and Hamburger Bahnhof, and Thomas Hirschhorn, Aysha E Arar, and Simon Fujiwara featured in prominent European venues. The gallery participates actively in international art fairs, reinforcing connections between the Israeli contemporary art scene and wider global circuits, while its Paris presence further consolidates its reach within European institutional and market networks.
