Kent Klich
Kent Klich’s Gaza International Airport on land and air is one of the current exhibitions on view at Havremagasinet. The exhibition tells the story of the once Active civilian airport in Gaza. The airport opened 1998 but closed due to Israeli bombing 2001 and has been closed ever since. The airport represents the Palestinian dream of free movement. Gaza was occupied by Israel during the six day war of 1967, the occupation was formally ended in 2005 but since Hamas was elected to government in Gaza Israel was upheld the blockade of the area, limiting movement of goods and people, despite international criticisms. During the last few days we have been witness to a terrible escalation in Gaza and Israel with evictions of Palestinian families in east Jerusalem, rocket attacks by Hamas and bombings of Gaza by Israeli air force.
