Description:
The second Intifada, which began in September 2000, has marked one of the most tense and painful periods in Israeli history. The television broadcasts are by now familiar. A blown out Israeli bus. Survivors sitting by the roadside. Israeli tanks rolling into dusty Arab villages. The words “cycle of violence,” “terror,” and “retaliation.”
Stay alert. Maybe next time it will be you.
How does it feel to fear that at any time a next bomb could explode alongside you? What is it like to go to school on a bus, hoping it will remain intact for the journey?
State of Siege is a unique, thought-provoking, and artistic critique of the situation in Israel today, conceived and created by the young Israeli artist, Doron Goldenberg, a graduate of the Bezalel Art Academy in Jerusalem. Through the use of powerful words and images, Goldenberg captures the psychological impact of living with terror that can’t be broadcast on television.

Critic Reviews:
“…One of the most exciting visual statements of a moral and historical situation I have ever seen...A moving and powerful book.”
Pnina Kass, Esra Magazine
“It is the work of a gifted artist and designer…who lifted terror into the realm of art.
This book should be required reading for all concerned with Israel’s future.”
Judy Carr, The Jewish Post and Opinion
“A thoughtful and colorful book offers a compressed dose of Israel in everyday snapshots—and much more.”
Susan Adler, Hadassah Magazine
