Yona's work's were exhibited in the President's Mansion, Ben-Gurion University, Omer Museum, Beer-Sheva Museum, The Entrance Gallery at the Massada National Park Art books, and more other Galleries and Museums. In ISRAEL and abroad. Sorin Dr. Heller (Museolog Independent Curator) wrote the following: "Yona Levy Grosman is a multi-disciplinary artist, whose artistic activity comprehends paintings, video art, drawings, poetry and essays. By her choice, she lives and works in the Negev, the southern part of Israel which is mostly a vast desert. And the desert is the most influential factor of her artistic work. It seems that her whole creation is an attempt to understand, sometimes to conquer, sometimes letting herself being captured by the desert's power and magic. One may refer to her work within the romantic paradigm of the sublime, on one hand the admiration of the vast landscape, on the other the realization of the insignificance of human beings. Her paintings reflect the desert topography, the harsh and blinding light, the emptiness. She uses heavy texture and bright colors keeping the acrylic glossiness. The painting's surface reflects the desert dunes, but the acrylic glossiness bestows a sense of artificiality. The large canvases echo the desert infinity. Sometimes the artist adds to the main painting other painted canvas that act like and break the rectangular format. Her style is figurative with abstract tendencies. But her paintings are by no means realist. They invoke the historical and cultural roots of the desert which is the borderline of two civilizations, ancient Egyptians and the Biblical Hebrews. It has symbolist affiliations, and above all the love of this rough country".

中新社重庆十二月十二日电 (记者 郭晋嘉)以色列驻华大使馆十二日在重庆举办“走进以色列——以色列当代摄影作品展”，向重庆市民介绍该国历史、风景、文化等情况，推介当地旅游。
据了解，此次展览共收集了六十四位以色列当代摄影家的一百八十三幅作品，全面展示了该国独特的风土人情和灿烂文化。
重庆市副市长周慕冰在开幕式上说，此次展览是为纪念以色列建国六十周年，也是为搭建重庆与以色列的友谊之桥而举办，希望通过展览，重庆与以色列能进一步拓宽双方的交流合作。
以色列驻华大使安泰毅则表示，目前已有中国旅游团到以色列观光旅游，以色列驻华使馆强烈感觉到中国游客对以色列的巨大兴趣。他希望没有计划去以色列旅游的人们也有机会透过此次影展了解当地的文化和传统，也希望重庆能在以色列举办展览推介巴渝文化。
二00七年十月，中以正式签署授予以色列“中国公民观光目的地”资格协议，并于今年九月正式进入实施阶段。
