Roee Rosen was born in 1963 in Rehovot
Roee Rosen was born in Rehovot on April 22, 1963. He studied visual art at Thelma Yellin.
He studied philosophy and comparative literature at Tel Aviv University until 1984. He then earned a BFA from the School of Visual Arts in New York in 1989 and an MFA from Hunter College in 1991.
His work deals with Judaism, Nazism, pornography, art history and questions of identity. His 1997 installation "Live and Die as Eva Braun" at the Israel Museum caused public controversy over its treatment of the Holocaust. He also invented fictional artists, among them the Belgian painter Justine Frank and the Russian emigrant poet Maxim Komar-Myshkin.
He is a professor at HaMidrasha Faculty of the Arts at Beit Berl College and at the Bezalel Academy of Arts and Design. His solo exhibitions have been shown in Warsaw, London, Tel Aviv, Paris and Lucerne. His film "Out" won a medium-length film prize in the Orizzonti section of the Venice festival, and in 2022 he released "Kafka for Kids".
