"Israeli born artist Michal Chelbin will discuss the work in her first monograph, Strangely Familiar: Acrobats, Athletes, and Other Traveling Troupes, (Aperture). In her sympathetic pictures of young performers and wrestlers from small towns in Ukraine, Eastern Europe, England, and Israel, Chelbin offers a glimpse into worlds both strange and familiar. The settings, costumes, and even some of the subjects themselves may seem exotic, but her portraits look beyond that to capture a transcendent sense of individual character."
