We are pleased to host Michel Platnic for two special events at the museum:
Lecture | Tuesday, June 2 | 18:00
Workshop | Tuesday, June 9 | 18:00
Michel Platnic is known for his original artistic language, combining installation, painting, performance, and video. In his works, he “brings to life” iconic artworks by artists such as Francis Bacon, Egon Schiele, Pablo Picasso, and Edward Hopper, transforming them into “living paintings.”
Working at the intersection of painting, video, and interactive media, Michel Platnic paints directly onto the bodies of participants while incorporating masks, objects, and mechanical mechanisms into his work.
Out of the Box Tour
ON HOLD TILL FURTHER NOTICE- On Fridays at 12.00 we offer a guided tour through the museum for all the visitors, included in the museum entrance fee.

The film “Ilana Goor: A Woman Against the Wind”
Thursday | 14.5
Screenings: 12:00 | 18:00
After decades of uncompromising creativity, Ilana Goor’s lifelong vision has taken form in a museum that reflects her spirit, her art, her personal collection, and her remarkable life story.
We invite you to a special first screening of the film “Ilana Goor: A Woman in the Wind” within the museum itself, the very place where her story unfolds. Experiencing the film in this setting adds a unique depth and resonance to the viewing.
Following the screening, guests are invited to an intimate conversation with Ilana Goor, offering a rare opportunity to ask questions and engage directly with the artist.
Anyone who purchased tickets for the event on 8.3 are welcome to select one of these new screening times. Additional dates will be announced soon.
Ilana Goor is an individualistic, autodidactic, intuitive and multifaceted artist. As an artist who knows no boundaries and whose art transcends any conventions, her creations are a blend of vitality and obsession, functional simplicity alongside expressive complexity bordering on surrealism.
Looking for an interesting pastime for The Weekedn? Planning a fun day with the kids? Ilana Goor Museum invites guests to enjoy a variety of guided tours in different languages.
