The Artistic Evolution of Diti Almog
Born in Haifa, Israel, Diti Almog began her artistic journey at the Bezalel Academy of Arts and Design, where she graduated in 1986. Her early career was characterized by multi-media works involving embroidery and printmaking, exploring themes such as gender issues in Iran, capitalism, and the aesthetics of the 1970s. During this period, her paintings were distinctly figurative, as seen in her 1992 exhibition in Tel Aviv. By 1994, her work began a transition from the figurative toward abstraction, exemplified by her painting Men's Shirt and Suite. Currently residing and working in New York City, Almog is represented by the Wetterling Gallery in Stockholm, Sweden.
Technique and Spatial Exploration
Almog’s contemporary practice primarily utilizes acrylic paint on aircraft plywood. Her formalist and minimalist compositions feature various squares and rectangles that are either flat or rendered with a gradient, notably lacking visible brushstrokes or texture. Through the layering of these shapes, she explores the concepts of interior and exterior spaces. Her work often plays with scale and repetition; for instance, she may hang smaller works directly next to one another to create the appearance of a larger canvas. Her titling conventions have evolved from descriptive names to the use of capital letters, such as ACA or SMAA, and occasionally incorporate specific times and dates.
