Numerous solo exhibitions were dedicated to her both in Paris and abroad: Copenhagen, Antwerp, Jerusalem, New York... She is present in numerous museums.
Hanna Ben Dov is part of the second School of Paris. A figurative expressionist until the end of the 1970s, she then adopted an abstract lyricism in the tradition of Monet with her friend Joan Mitchell.
