Shimon Attie is a multidisciplinary artist who creates site-specific installations in public spaces using video, photography and collaborative processes with local communities.

His work has been shown at The Museum of Modern Art, New York; the Corcoran Gallery of Art, Washington, D.C.; Centre Georges Pompidou, Paris and the Institute of Contemporary Art, Boston. He has received fellowships from the John S.
