Abstract

The chapter discusses Jewish Israeli women immigrant artists through the case study of artist Jennifer Abesirra (b. 1984), an immigrant from France of Algerian origin. Abesirra's artworks stand as examples of the complex, multilayered, and dynamic identity of immigrant women in Israel. The discussion in the chapter integrates global and transnational aspects of women's migration with local perspectives, which are unique to the ethnic, religious, social and civic circumstances in the state of Israel. It tackles feminist issues, arguing for a new understanding of the role played by immigrant women within the nation–state. While striving to problematize essentialist theorisation, it examines heterogeneous constructions of gendered selves by women who live in transnational contexts: out of the mosaic of artistic artefacts analysed arises an argument that challenges the binary thinking that distinguishes the ‘Israeli society’ from ‘women migrants, and ‘the State of Israel’ from the ‘Middle Eastern space’.

用连字符连接。当代以色列艺术中的跨国女性主义
本章通过艺术家Jennifer Abesirra(出生于1984年)的案例研究来讨论犹太以色列女性移民艺术家,她是阿尔及利亚裔法国移民。Abesirra的作品代表了以色列移民女性复杂、多层次和动态的身份。本章的讨论将妇女移民的全球和跨国方面与以色列国的种族、宗教、社会和公民环境所特有的地方观点结合起来。它处理女权主义问题,主张对移民妇女在民族国家中所扮演的角色进行新的理解。在努力将本质主义理论化的问题化的同时,它考察了生活在跨国背景下的女性对性别自我的异质建构:从所分析的艺术手工艺品的马赛克中产生了一种挑战二元思维的论点,这种二元思维将“以色列社会”与“女性移民”区分开来,将“以色列国”与“中东空间”区分开来。
