Poster Protesting the Retreat from Sinai and Evacuation of Yamit Settlements, 1982
Large poster protesting the evacuation of Yamit Settlements, titled Al Na Taakor Natua (Do not uproot that which is planted), a line from a Naomi Shemer song (Al Kol Ele, possibly written in response to the decision to evacuate the settlements). Further text: Yamit Region, 1982.
The poster shows a kneeling man, his right knee on the ground clutching the earth strongly, while his left hand holds a seedling of a tree with its roots partly visible. The sky in the background is black.
The designer's name appears on the bottom right corner in Hebrew and English: Zvi Geyra. Geyra, a Bezalel graduate, who also designed the cover of Zingale's only album, was a leading activist against the evacuation of the Yamit settlements.
The logo of the Movement to Stop the Sithdrawal in Sinai appears on the bottom right hand corner, together with an address in Sadot settlement.
100x70 cm. Very good condition, creases.
