Sculpture Garden
In the summers of 2003 and 2004 two artistic lighting designs illuminated the world-famous Sculpture Garden of the Israel Museum in a new light. The 2003 project was done with the help of 'Israel Electric' and designed by Danny Bishop. The garden was lit in beauty and splendor, creating an unforgettable, fantastic atmosphere.
The 2004 project was created by "Magenta", and designed by the lighting artist Avi Yonna, also known as Bamby.
