Michal Rovner Biography

Michal Rovner is one of the most popular and richest Visual Artist who was born on November 7, 1957 in Ramat Gan, Tel Aviv District, Israel. Michal Rovner was a Tel Aviv, Israel native. She received a BFA in Photography and Art from the Bezalel Academy of Arts and Design, Jerusalem, in 1981.

In her 1990-91 early photography series Outside, “Rovner photographed a Bedouin tent in the Israeli desert for two years, then retouched each photograph to create a shifting, spectral image of the small structure in an inhospitable environment.” In order to create blurred photographs of obscure groups of people, she used radar and surveillance images to distort them. She also distorted images in One-Person Game Against Nature (1992-1993), this time using her own photos of people floating in Dead Sea.

In 1996, Rovner began to use film and video, creating works featuring anonymous crowds of people or animals, as in Monoprints of Birds (1998). While she has eschewed direct political commentary in her work, in 1995–96 she produced installations for the Israel-Lebanon border that were situated on electric fences and guard towers in the line of ongoing exchanges of fire. These were complemented by her video Border (1996–97), in which she futilely attempted to demarcate and cross the border from Israel into Lebanon.

Her video Notes (2001) was a collaboration with the composer Philip Glass; Rovner used footage of a group of people walking on an inclined angle, and Glass composed music inspired by this moving image (their collaboration was documented in the 2003 documentary Looking Glass). Time Left (2002), a multichannel-video installation comprising images of endless rows of indistinct beings, was the centerpiece of her mid-career retrospective at the Whitney Museum of American Art in New York in 2002. For the exhibition In Stone, at PaceWildenstein in New York in 2004, she mixed sculpture and video by projecting minute images of crowds onto tablets of stone, blurring the line between image and text.

Rovner has been a part of numerous solo exhibitions ever since her 1987 debut at Tel Aviv’s Dizengoff Center.
