Ori Gersht

b. 1967, Tel Aviv, Israel. Ori Gersht is a London-based artist whose work has been concerned with the relationships between history, memory and landscape. He often adopts a poetic, metaphorical approach to explore the difficulties of visually representing conflict and violent events or histories. Gersht approaches this challenge not simply through his choice of imagery, but by pushing the technical limitations of photography, questioning its claim to truth. (Courtesy of the artist).
