Description

Tent. Venetië, La Biennale di Venezia, Canada Pavilion, 01-06-2013. 24-11-2013. - De Canadese bijdrage aan de 55e Biënnale van Venetië toonde installaties, tekeningen en performances van de Canadese kunstenares Shary Boyle (Scarborough 1972). - One of country's most innovative artists, Boyle works in a diversity of media, including fine craft, drawing, installation and performance, often in collaboration with established musicians. Blending historical narratives and fantastical fictions with her own personal impressions, she creates imaginary worlds that elicit a range of psychological and emotional responses. A consummate object maker, Boyle's finely honed skills are disquietingly wed to a beguilingly poetic tone and a thoroughly contemporary sensibility. This original publication features new works created expressly for the event and is accompanied by a scholarly essay and an interview with the artist
