Maayan Strauss

Maayan Strauss ( _he. מעין שטראוס, born in 1983 in Jerusalem) is an Israeli artist.

Strauss studied architecture at the Bezalel Academy of Art and Design in Jerusalem. She has exhibited in several galleries and art projects, such as the project "Sharon", that suggests, according to curator Joshua Simon, "an unlikely connection between the most affluent region in Israel, and the name of the Israeli PM."

In 2004 she presented some of her photography works in the Tel Aviv Givon Gallery. In the fall of 2004 a magazine of poetry, art and ideas was named after her, (Maayan). Strauss also appeared in an auto-photograph on the magazine's first cover.

In 2005, Strauss was involved in the short film "Beautiful Tamar" as the narrator.

In 2006, she exhibited a work called "Settlement Evacuation" in the Israel Museum of Jerusalem as part of the "Mini Israel" exhibition that the museum held. Strauss' work was a model of a Jewish settlement being evacuated.

In May, 2006, Strauss curated with Roy Arad and Joshua Simon the exhibition "Doron" (present in Hebrew) at the Minshar Gallery in Tel Aviv.
