Galerie Thaddaeus Ropac is pleased to present a monographic exhibition of works by Israeli artist Amos Gitai.

For several years Gitai has used various modes of artistic expression, ranging from films, theater, installations and photography. This has led to more and more frequent invitations from many museums including MoMA, Reina Sofia, and the Centre Pompidou.

His favourite themes, history and all it entails and people's destiny in the face of potentially overwhelming odds, are the subjects of a formal and thematic quest, which he pursues relentlessly. Here, his photographic work also becomes an interrogation of different narrative modes. His photos become visual ellipses, their figurative quality almost vanishing into abstraction.
