Dana
Yoeli
Dana Yoeli (b.1979) is a Tel Aviv-based multidisciplinary artist whose practice relies on a wide range of media, construction of large scale installations, video work, photography, drawing, and sculpture. Her work focuses primarily on the tension between personal story and collective ethos, and the roles that nostalgia, memory and ceremonies play in this relationship.
Yoeli’s work has been shown in prominent spaces and museums in Israel and Europe, with one-woman shows and special projects at the Benyamini Contemporary Ceramics Center in Tel Aviv, Magasin III Jaffa, the Petah Tikva Museum of Art, FRIZE Hamburg, the Herzliya Museum of Art, the Beit Bialik Museum, CIRCLE-1 Gallery in Berlin, the Chelouche Gallery in Tel Aviv, the Tel Aviv Artists’ Workshops, Kav 16 Gallery, the Dana Gallery at Kibbutz Yad Mordechai, the Bezalel Gallery in Tel Aviv, the Tavi Dresdner Gallery, and at her own studio in Jerusalem.
Yoeli has also participated in numerous group exhibitions in Israel and abroad, including at the Tel Aviv Museum of Art, Kunstraum Kreuzberg / Bethanien in Berlin, Forum for Living History in Stockholm, Sweden, the Artists’ House in Jerusalem, the Ashdod Museum of Art, the Haifa Museum of Art, the Guttman Museum, Bat Yam Museum of Art, KUBUS Hanover, GSA Glasgow, and other major galleries. Her works can be found in private and public collections in Israel and around the world.
