Synopsis

Roee Rosen (b. Rehovot, Israel, 1963; lives and works in Tel Aviv) is an artist, writer, and filmmaker. His critical and satirical reflections bring a humorous psychoanalytical approach to bear on the study of desire and structural violence. Rosen intertwines contemporary Israeli and international politics with references to European and Jewish history. Mustering a broad range of fictional characters, iconographic motifs, and coded symbols, he repeatedly adapts and transforms the canon of the historical avant-garde and transgressive traditions from Marquis de Sade to Georges Bataille. Popular media, political propaganda, and classic children's fairy tales are also among the sources Rosen taps into. The Standard Edition features a series of book covers--all of them promises, fantasies, and decoys. The titles are based on the famous edition of the works of Sigmund Freud (released by the Hogarth Press between 1953 and 1974). Freud's name and the titles of his writings are replaced by the artist's and alternative headings; each of the original 24 volumes in the series comes in two versions: a typographic and an illustrated one. With an introduction by Krzysztof Kościuczuk and Christoph Platz-Gallus
