Shimon Attie uses a variety of processes to reclaim the world’s buried histories. His works have included laser texts, projections onto buildings, glowing light-box portraits submerged in canals, and multi-layered photographs that conflate past and present. His body of work reveals the rich complexity of the past, and the dark secrets of our surrounding environment. Attie’s work is held in numerous public collections worldwide, including those of the Museum of Modern Art, New York, and the Museum of Modern Art-Berlinische Gallery, Berlin.
