Her landscape paintings address the theme of personal and collective memory of the three generations of the Engler family.
She graduated from the Tel Aviv University (1996), Hamidrasha-Kalmania College of Art (1999) and Chelsea School of Art (2004). As a renowned Israeli artist, she has exhbiiyed in Israel Museum (Jerusalem), Noga Gallery (Tel Aviv), Haifa museum of art (Haifa), Tel Aviv Museum of Art & Helena Rubinstein Pavilion and more.
Engler depicts cryptic landscapes that point towards the idyll. Blushing fields and hollowed out forests seemingly emerge and recede simultaneously on the surface, evoking the visual effect of an evaporating mist. In real time, each painting reveals a complex layering system and concentrated areas of intricate detail within that pays homage to, and creates a dialogue with historical classical paintings in the canon of Western Art.
For Galerie Huit, the exhibition ‘Time lapses’ explores the non-linear interpretation of time, where the artist approaches each painting as an archeological site, brining together the past and the present.
Ms Engler will be present at the following events:

以色列藝術家 Nogah Engler 在香港的首個個人畫展《時移》將於2017年1月19日至3月4日於錦藝舫展出。
Engler（生於1970年，美國賓夕法尼亞州）在以色列長大和讀書，現於倫敦生活及工作。
Engler 擅於描繪田野的隱秘風景。泛紅的鄉郊與空洞的森林看似模糊地浮現在表面，引起霧化的視覺效果。而現實中，每一幀畫都表現出不同的層次和複雜精細的細節，以向古典西方藝術大師致敬。
展題《時移》旨在探索與演繹非線性的時間。藝術家把每幀畫當作成一個個考古遺址將過去與現在聯繫在一起.
Engler 將來港出席1月18日星期三6–7pm舉行的座談會和1月19日星期四6–9pm舉行的開幕酒會，歡迎各界人士參與。
