An independent curator that has been active in the field of local art for more than a decade.
Graduate of the Department of Art History at Tel Aviv University and the program for Cultural Studies, Curatorship and Criticism at Camera Obscura – The School of Arts.
Ben Nun has curated many solo and group exhibitions in contemporary art galleries, museums and non-profit venues, whose activities facilitate the encounters between the private and the public spheres.
Her curatorial work is based on prolonged work processes that combine research with close and in-depth dialogue with the artists. For her, an exhibition is a time-dependent 'event' that brings together space and images, objects and materials.
