This Storm Is What We Call Progress is a significant new exhibition of work by the Israeli-born, London- based artist Ori Gersht.

The display, opening in the week the UK marks Holocaust Memorial Day, consists of two recent film works that reflect on individuals’ life experiences shaped by the Second World War, alongside a series of new photographs.

The exhibition is being presented at IWM London in partnership with the commissioning agency Photoworks (photoworks.org.uk), and is Ori Gersht’s first major solo museum show in the UK. Gersht’s work often deals with conflict, history and geographical place, and the three central works in this new show each disguise dark and complex themes beneath seductive, beautiful imagery.
