Montreal, Quebec H2Y 2R5 Canada
DHC/ART is pleased to present Particles of Reality, the first solo exhibition in Canada by the celebrated Israeli artist Michal Rovner, who divides her time between New York City and a farm in Israel.
Deploying painstaking digital marks to create highly lyrical languages, Michal Rovner's layered and intentionally ambiguous work touches on the processes of historical documentation, archaeology, science and choreography to activate states of probing reverie in the viewer.
Michal Rovner (b. 1955, Israel) studied photography, cinema and philosophy before co-founding Tel Aviv's Camera Obscura Art School in 1978. She moved to New York in 1988. Her exhibition Against Order? Against Disorder? at the Israeli pavilion was the most talked about installation at the Venice Biennale in 2003. -e-Flux
