Born in Geneva, Switzerland, 1926 - in Israel since 1948
Photographer for 28 years at the Faculty of Architecture, Technion, Haifa.
Ben-Arieh works mainly with the method of photomontage. His photographs are composed of a number of negatives, which were taken at various locations and times, and were assembled by him into final prints in the darkroom.
Only in the last years did he pass over to creating his digital images through photoshop.
In the artist's pictures there frequently appear female nude motives, which seem to connect themselves with imaginary scenery. The result is the creation of a differently reality which emerges from the unconscious and is related with the world of myths and archetypes.
On the other hand, in his portrait pictures, as well as in the nude, the artist aims to express the personality of the models, as well as his own inner truth.
