The exhibition mines the iconography of religion, science fiction and representations of the sublime, merging the meditative and the reverential to transform our perspective.
Often combining and amplifying strategies of verité filmmaking, conceptual art, music video and scientific research, Jeremy Shaw creates a post-documentary space that complicates expectations of image as a form of testimony.
Shaw has had solo exhibitions at Centre Pompidou, Paris, MoMA PS1, New York, Schinkel Pavillon, Berlin, and MOCA Toronto, and been featured in international surveys such as the 57th Venice Biennale, 16th Lyon Biennale and Manifesta 11, Zurich. In 2016 he was awarded the Sobey Art Award and in 2018 was artist-in-residence at the Hammer Museum, Los Angeles. Works by Shaw are held in public collections worldwide including the Museum of Modern Art, New York, Centre Pompidou, Paris, Tate Modern, London, and the National Gallery of Canada, Ottawa.
Born in North Vancouver, Canada, in 1977, Shaw lives ans works in Berlin. He is represented by Bradley Ertaskiran.
