In the new work “Field” (2018) by Noa Gur (*1980) the artist combines various perspectives of the body with practices of viewing. The spectator’s body is an activating element of the extensive installation that functions as a manipulated narrative. The work urges the viewer to enter a filmed monochrome green and slanting mounted color field which incorporates different art objects.

Noa Gur was born in 1980 in Holon, Israel and currently resides and works in Berlin, Cologne and her home town Tel Aviv. She has exhibited her works in international museums, galleries and on art fairs; such as the Tel Aviv Museum, the Herzliya Museum, Herzliya, KIT, Düsseldorf as well as Museu MAN Nuoro, Italy; the Braverman Gallery, Tel Aviv, Gallery Campagne Premiere, Berlin and Artissima Art Fair, Turin. She received several art grants, amongst others by Kunstfonds Bonn, Germany, as well as the prestigious Artport residency in Tel Aviv, La Box in Bourge, France, and Reso in Torino, Italy. Her works are part of private and public collections in Europe, for instance the Goetz Collection in Munich and Maison européenne de la photographie, Paris.
