Israeli Artist Duo doing favors for Arabs in Copenhagen
April 6, 2008
The Israeli gay artist duo Gil & Moti will during the next two months - as a part of the art project ‘Available for You’ - do favors for Arabs in Copenhagen - such as babysitting, cooking and gardening.
Gil and Moti are the only couple ever to be officially married on the Queen’s Balcony, Rotterdam. Only three times in a hundred years has this sacred venue ever been used.
Gil & Moti have lived their love in public for six years at the Gil & Moti Homegallery in Rotterdam. They have recreated their fable of love in venues throughout Europe.
In 2003, Gil & Moti decided to fall in love with an Arab. They staged their life-performance “Dating Gil & Moti” at the Haifa Museum. —To consternation and applause. Jackthepelican
Hopefully the artists have taken proper security precautions before meeting the neither exactly art-loving nor Israel-sympathetic or gay- appreciative Arab crowd.
