Martha Rosler is a conceptual American artist known for her photomontage series 'House Beautiful: Bringing the War Home' and her critical work on media, war, and women's experience.
Martha Rosler is an American conceptual artist born in Brooklyn, New York. She emerged in the 1960s and 1970s, developing a practice that spans photography, video, installation, and performance. Her early work often addressed everyday life and the public sphere, with a particular focus on women's experience.
Rosler's signature photomontage series 'House Beautiful: Bringing the War Home' juxtaposes images of domestic interiors with scenes of war, critiquing media representation and the built environment. She also works in video and site-specific installation, exploring themes of housing, homelessness, and systems of transport.
Recent recognition includes the Louisiana Museum of Modern Art's 2026 exhibition 'House Beautiful', drawn from her photomontage series, and the museum's acquisition of her works for its collection. Her work continues to be shown internationally, including in the 2026 collection exhibition 'Dreams Have No Title'.
