Ha Aretz, The Promised Land

Named after the Aramaic language spoken by Jesus Christ and referring to the Holy Land,Ha Aretz is a reinterpretation of biblical stories in the midst of a globalized world of alienation and conflict. Based on extensive historical and graphic research and compiled with photographs taken in all the countries that make up the Holy Land, the book documents the precise locations where the most famous events of the Holy Scriptures are said to have taken place, beginning with Genesis and Exodus and continuing through the life of Jesus to the Apocalypse.

From the Nile to the Sea of Galilee, from Damascus to Bethlehem or from Mount Sinai to Babylon, Ha Aretz reflects on the evolution of the ancestral regions that represent the epicenter of Jewish, Christian and Arab cultures, while attesting to the power that geopolitics, capitalism and technology exert in our time. The booklet describes the relevance of the place then and now.
