Keren Cytter

(born in 1977 in Tel Aviv; lives in Berlin and Amsterdam)


In a series of films and film installations about her surroundings, her friends and her family, the Israeli artist Keren Cytter has developed a radical subjectivity which she posits against the conventions and rules of literature and the cinema. In the place of dialogue or plot, notes similar to those jotted down in a diary, impressions, observations and even grotesque, dream-like fantasies all prevail. With sophisticated shifts and jumps and a complex approach, Keren Cytter questions our relation to reality.
