Maayan Strauss
Edit ProfileCareer
She has exhibited in several galleries and art projects, such as the project "Sharon", that suggests, according to curator Joshua Simon, "an unlikely connection between the most affluent region in Israel, and the name of the Israeli Prime Minister."
In 2003 she showed paintings and photographs in Tel Aviv"s renowned Givon Gallery. In 2005, Strauss was involved in the short film Beautiful Tamar as the narrator. In 2006, she exhibited a work called "Settlement Evacuation" in the Israel Museum of Jerusalem as part of the "Mini Israel" exhibition that the museum held.
Strauss"s work was a model of a Jewish settlement being evacuated.
The work was followed by debates of political nature in the Israeli press and parliament. In May, 2006, Strauss curated with Roy Arad and Joshua Simon the exhibition Doron (present in Hebrew) at the Minshar Gallery in Tel Aviv.
