An Archeology of Fear and Desire is Brenner’s contribution to This Place, an epic photographic project he conceived of at his home in Paris in 2005. He imagined inviting artists from around the world to come to Israel ‘neither to praise nor condemn but to question and reveal.’

Now 10 years later, the project is in full blossom. Twelve internationally acclaimed photographers have traveled to Israel between 2009 and 2013, representing the most acclaimed group of artists ever to turn their attention to Israel. A major traveling exhibition is opening at the Tel Aviv Museum of Art in May and will travel to the Norton Museum of Art, West Palm Beach, in October and to the Brooklyn Museum of Art next February. The exhibition is curated by Charlotte Cotton, an internationally acclaimed curator and the former head of the photography department at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art.
