rdf:langString Nahum Tevet (Hebrew: נחום טבת) (Born 1946, , Israel) is one of the leading Israeli artists whose work was among the earliest to respond to the minimalist canon by introducing into his installations everyday domestic objects, metaphors and images like in: Corner (1973-4) and Arrangements of Six Units. Starting the 1980's Tevet’s work turned reductivism upside-down by using geometrical-abstract vocabulary in large-scale intricate labyrinth-like complex sculptures and installations. Those turned into even more extensive installations in the later years 1990s – to today. Tevet has been the subject of major survey exhibitions at both the Israel Museum in Jerusalem and the Tel Aviv Museum His work has been part of exhibitions worldwide since 1975, such as numerous solo and group exhibitions in Europe and the United States, among which Documenta 8 (1987), the Sao Paulo Biennale (1994), the Biennale of Lyon (1997), the Venice Biennale (2003) and the Carnegie International (1999), and museum shows at the Museum Moderner Kunst Stiftung Ludwig in Vienna (1997), Dundee Contemporary Art (2004), the Museo d’Arte Contemporanea Roma (2008), the Kunstmuseum Bochum (2015), Museum Sztuki Łódź (2017) and Museum Villa Stuck, Munich (2017).His work is included in many important museum collections including MOMA, New York, the Philadelphia Museum of Art, Museum Sztuki, Łódź, the Ludwig Foundation, Vienna, the Kaiser Wilhelm Museum, Krefeld, Magasin3, Stockholm, Kunsthalle Mannheim, FRAC Bretagne, the Israel Museum, Jerusalem and the Tel Aviv Museum of Art.
