Angela Bulloch
Canada, 1966
Finished her studies at Goldsmiths College, University of London in 1988. Bulloch was nominated for the Turner Prize in 1997. She was a recipient of the Kunstpreis der Stadt Wolfsburg and the Vattenfall Contemporary Art Prize (both 2011) and was nominated for the Preis der Freunde der Nationalgalerie, Berlin (2005). She lives and works in Berlin.
Angela Bulloch’s work spans many media, manifesting her interest in systems, patterns and rules, as well as her preoccupation with the history of shapes and human interaction. Her recent series of sculptures combines her interest in the logic of geometry and seriality with a graphic quality. The appearance of the sculpture shifts according to one’s point of view: from one side the irregular aspect dominates, while from another, the impression of a certain totemic regularity prevails.
Recent solo museum exhibitions of her work have been presented by the Musée d’Arts de Nantes; MAAT, Lisbon; Sharjah Art Museum; Witte de With Center for Contemporary Art, Rotterdam; Berlinische Galerie, Berlin; Städtische Galerie im Lenbachhaus & Kunstbau, Munich. She is currently participating in the 15th Gwangju Biennale.
