Llana Goor Museum in Tel Aviv

Located in a building which at one point of time in the distant past provided a roof above the heads of the pilgrims heading towards Jerusalem, Llana Goor Museum in Tel Aviv now displays artistic expressions of Llana Goor and works of others artists which were once a part of Goor’s collection.

Llana Goor has achieved worldwide renown for a sculpture and a designer of the highest class. Llana Goor Museum is entirely Goor’s creation. Everything in the museum, from the arrangement of the exhibits to the layout of the rooms has a stamp of Goor’s presence. In setting up the Museum, Goor was ably supported by her husband Leonard Lowengrub.

Initially a private dwelling of Llana Goor, the Museum was made public in 1995 and since then it has received over 200,000 visitors. The idyllic location of the Llana Goor near the sea and the it timeless architecture are in perfect consonance with the premise of Llana Goor’s art work which works on the dynamics of ‘old and new’.
