About

Boaz Noy’s painting starts from a personal experience, a moment of random and unplanned encounter while wandering in the city. Although he wanders in places that he already knows, these rambles still summon surprises for him. Noy allows himself to rediscover the city time after time, meeting it each time anew. Like Baudelaire’s or Benjamin’s flâneur, his wanderings may not have a purpose in the strict sense of the word, but they offer a new perspective on the familiar space, attention to the urban environment, and a search for inspiration and wonderment in everyday life.
