Acclaimed Israeli artist Michal Rovner combines technology and the weight of history for new striking multi-screen works at Pace London
Michal Rovner art and career
Israeli artist Michal Rovner is internationally regarded and has already had a mid-career retrospective at the Whitney Museum of Art and represented Israel at the Venice Biennale in 2003. You may have heard of her Makom (Place) series, where she created new spaces using stones taken from Israeli and Palestinian houses in Jerusalem, Bethlehem, Haifa and Galilee. She's also known for her Traces of Life installation at the Aushwitz-Birkenau State Museum that deals directly with the Jewish children that were killed by the Nazi regime.

For her first show at Pace London, Michal Rovner delves into multi screen LCD technology with a series of mournful large-scale images combining both landscape and figurative elements. Panorama takes a look at wide themes about human nature and the nature of history through the lens of abstraction. At once distant and immediate, Rovner's films are timeless and stunning.
Modern technology and ancient material meet in Rovner's reinvention of video art at Pace London.
