Publisher Note

Efrat Shvily’s New Homes in Israel and the Occupied Territories is a series of black-and-white photographs of houses and suburban neighborhoods that sometimes faintly echo the forms of “the ideal city.”

The disconnection of the buildings from their surroundings points to the problematic relationship between the Israelis and their land. The series arose in response to the large number of Jewish settlements that were realized in Israel and in the Occupied Territories in the 1990s.

The New Homes series was part of the exhibition [based upon] True Stories at Witte de With (January 24 – March 30, 2003).
