Yury Revich
FNYR was created in 2015 as a concert cycle “Friday Nights with Yury Revich” by Yury Revich. In 2023, FESTIVAL NIGHTS was created.
The aim of the project is to develop a new event format that combines a formal classical music concert and an informal concert with other art forms: the “Concert of Arts”.
The concept is based on a synergetic and dialogic collaboration between music, art, applied arts, theater, dance and fashion with the aim of opening new perspectives to hear art and see music.
“Friday Nights with Yury Revich” is the main project of MY ARTS, Association for Cultural Support, a transdisciplinary non-profit organization for the promotion and networking of young creative potential on a national and international level.

Bet Alpha at the Villa Mautner-Jäger, Vienna
About Bet Alpha at Villa Mautner-Jäger, Vienna.
The presentation Bet Alpha comprises a series of video installations and spatial projections that occupy the Villa Mautner-Jäger for a week as a kind of urban storm or makeshift fair. The name is borrowed from the kibbutz Bet Alpha in northern Israel. The presentation revolves around the idea of “exhibition as place,” which amounts to the experience of both a concrete and an abstract locality. The title refers to an original condition (in Hebrew, “Bet Alpha” stands for House Alpha) as well as a disruptive framework (if read as the inversion of the word alphabet).
Bet Alpha aims to transform an existing architecture into a sequence of spaces recreated through screens and canvases. Through the use of projections and film and video screenings, the physical reality of the site is obscured, literally shielded, but in doing so also foregrounds the question of how an open and elusive historical-social reality can be accessed at all. Oscillating between documentary representation and elaborate fantasy, fiction and optical illusion, Bet Alpha repeatedly shows Pier Paolo Pasolini’s documentary film Sopralloughi in Palestina from 1963, made during the legendary filmmaker’s preparations for his groundbreaking film The 1st Gospel – Matthew (Il Vecchio). Gospel – Matthew (Il Vangelo Secondo Matteo) from 1964, the documentary offers an original view of the then young country of Israel and conveys the director’s reflections on the state of the biblical landscape as a melting pot of the distant and recent past.
The exhibition unfolds across a broad spectrum of projected entities in space, from cinema to video and recorded performance. It includes works by twenty artists* with very different backgrounds. As it moves between spaces, Bet Alpha itself becomes a kind of film, irregularly edited and continually re-edited in real time according to the movement of visitors*. Bet Alpha moves back and forth between the real and the imaginary, the material and the virtual, through various forms of projection and display, plus some sculptural interventions. These sculptural interventions represent the wholly material pole of Bet Alpha, anchoring the presentation in a physical ground that is continually abandoned and rediscovered.
Bet Alpha amounts to an experience that transforms the Villa Mautner-Jäger into a sanctuary, an enclave separated from its surroundings, the urban, communal fabric in which it is embedded. Bet Alpha treats the villa as a place of daydreaming, a launching pad for events and situations that transcend and transcend the historical present – that is, the generally established, or rather ideologically hegemonic, everyday reality.
Organized in collaboration with the Kira A. Princess of Prussia Foundation and curated by Ory Dessau.
