New York Times review by Karen Rosenberg

In the mesmerizing video art of Oded Hirsch, who is now having his first solo exhibition in New York, the communal labors of the kibbutz become haunting performances.....


Critic's Pick by Jerry Saltz in New York Magazine

......I was stunned by how many people worked remarkably hard so that such a simple thing might be given to one person. Hirsch evokes our eternal need to build towers of Babel to touch the gods. 


Artcritical review by Kris Scheifele

........In each of these impeccably produced documentary-style videos, Hirsch stages seemingly pointless physical ordeals sharing some of the kooky compulsion depicted in Werner Herzog’s film, Fitzcarraldo. Hirsch doesn’t gather a cast to pull a steamship over a mud-slick mountain, but the dream behind that effort—to bring opera to the Amazon—is not unlike Hirsch’s desire to unite people for the purpose of making art; both put art under scrutiny while locating it outside traditional comfort zones.......


Village Voice review 'Best in the Show' by Robert Shuster

In four short, beguiling films - all shot in Israel and all without dialogue - Oded Hirsch offers poignant visions, grand and small, of spiritual fulfillment.....
