Ohad Fishof

Composition

Komponist

Ohad Fishof is an interdisciplinary artist, working in a diverse range of fields including dance, sound, performance, video and installation. He began his artistic career in music and gradually broadened his creative endeavors to other forms of media. In 1997 he received an MA in Dance from Laban Center, London. He spent the following years creating dance and performance pieces, as well as sound and video. His performance collaboration, "Home" with artist Uri Katzenstein, was presented as part of the 2001 Venice Biennial. Over the past fifteen years, Fishof has been consistently expanding his ever-growing body of work – a difficult-to-categorize continuum of idiosyncratic time-based art, ranging from live music to site-specific performance work, video animation, installations, dance pieces and soundtrack work.

His work has been commissioned by art organizations such as Artangel and presented in museums, galleries and theaters in the UK, the USA, Israel, Japan and Switzerland among…
