ETERNAL STAR

At the center of memorial stands the Eternal Star - a kinetic abstract sculpture rooted in the work of the late Jewish artist Vadim Grinberg. Through continuous movement and shifting perspective, the sculpture interacts with light, atmosphere, and human presence, creating an experience that is never fixed and continually evolving.

At certain moments, the geometric composition resolves into the form of the Star of David before dissolving once again into abstraction. This cyclical emergence reflects the history of the Jewish people across generations - repeatedly displaced, threatened, and fragmented, yet continually reemerging with resilience, continuity, and enduring identity.

Within this framework, the events of October 7th are understood not as an isolated tragedy, but as part of a far longer historical arc of struggle, survival, and renewal. The Eternal Star stands both as a memorial to the lives taken and as a lasting affirmation of Jewish memory, endurance, and continuity across time.

Inspired by the work of the late Jewish artist Vadim Grinberg, Eternal Star Project establishes monumental memorial sites honoring the victims of the October 7, 2023 attack. At the heart of each site stands Eternal Star, Grinberg’s iconic kinetic sculpture, transforming public space into a lasting expression of memory, courage, and hope.

Collectively, these sites form The Constellation - a worldwide network of Eternal Star Projects spanning major cities across the globe. Bound by a common design language and purpose, The Constellation creates a living framework of remembrance that transcends geography, linking Jewish communities in a shared commitment to preserving the past and illuminating the future.

Vadim Grinberg's (1947 - 2018) practice moved between disciplines without settling into any one of them. 

Sculptor, painter, designer, poet: the categories overlapped deliberately, each informing the others.

Today, his estate is managed by his daughter, Julia Grinberg and Vadeli Arts, that steward his body of work and make it accessible to collectors, curators, and institutions worldwide.
