why is it that palestinians and israelis don´t get along together?

face2face is a new project in the middle east trying to find out just that.


artists JR & Marco traveled extensively through the region since 2005 and came to the conclusion that afterall the people inhabiting those areas don´t look so much different from one another- or at least they don´t from an outsider´s perpective-


the endless similarities they have encountered within these cultures where judaism, christianity and islam coexist somehow together, convinced them that it was about time to put these people face to face.


it is a truly hilarious and profound project which tries to find solutions to the cultural conflicts in the middle east, and for once, with a good dose of fun.


so if on the 4th of march you find yourself by any chance around bethlehem checkpoint on the palestinian side or if you are near the abu dis gas station at the end of jericho road on the israeli side on the 7th of march,
you must go and check it out!


if you are stuck here in berlin or anywhere else far from the exhibition ...well, what to say...
enjoy the pictures on the net.
