Following the October 7 tragedy, communities from the country’s south and north were evacuated to various locations throughout Israel at an unprecedented scale. This complex situation required the construction of alternative education systems for schoolchildren who study far from home.
At the initiative of the Musrara School and the Trump Foundation, the exhibition “Migratory Schooling” features ten projects by artists who documented the children, faculty, and the spaces which were transformed into temporary classrooms for the evacuees, using photography, video, text, and sound. The exhibition explores the architecture of the makeshift learning spaces as well as the teachers and students, who migrate between geographical locations. It seeks to make the voices of these communities heard and draw attention to different aspects related to education in wartime.
