Synopsis

Ivorypress Art + Books organize the first major solo exhibition of Rovner in Spain, a collaboration between the PaceWildenstein Gallery in New York and Ivorypress. The Israeli artist defines her work as follows: "My work is not about a political situation, but a human situation." In order to formulate these questions regarding the human condition Rovner uses a great variety of artistic expressions: video production, photography, painting, printmaking, sculpture and architectural intervention. The exhibition and the published catalog include 23 works produced during the past five years, and the spectacular video installation Fields of Fire.
