I was thinking of combining that with a model of Zim Lines, the Israeli shipping line, a container ship, and have this little Nanook figure - Nanook and Goliath - thinking of the convoys of the Palestinians. Why not imagine an Eskimo with a spear trying to spear an Israeli container ship. David becomes Goliath and Nanook is still there trying to make his case, Nanook the Fedayin, or something of that sort. But those kinds of juxtapositions feel like the kind of object montage that maybe I want to resist, but it is possible that we might try some experiments like that.\u0026quot;\u003c/p\u003e\r\n"},{"locale":"nl","short_description":"","description":"\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003eGlen O., \u003cem\u003e\u0026quot;Nanook\u0026quot;,\u0026nbsp;Inuit Walrus Tusk Carving of a Seal Hunter in a Kayak\u003c/em\u003e [titel gegeven door\u0026nbsp;Allan Sekula], hout, touw, productiedatum onbekend (PayPal document beschrijft het object als \u0026#39;oud\u0026#39;), 4,2 x 15,2 x 1,8 cm.
