Daniel Arsham (born 1980 in Cleveland, Ohio) is a contemporary American artist raised in Miami, Florida. He currently lives and works in New York City. == Practice == New York-based artist Daniel Arsham straddles art, architecture and performance. Raised in Miami, Arsham attended the Cooper Union in New York City, where he received the Gelman Trust Fellowship Award in 2003. Architecture is a prevalent subject throughout his work: environments with eroded walls and stairs going nowhere, landscapes where nature overrides structures, and a general sense of playfulness within existing architecture. Arsham makes architecture do things it is not intended to do, mining everyday experience for opportunities to confuse and confound our expectations of space and form. Simple yet paradoxical gestures dominate his sculptural work: a façade that appears to billow in the wind, a figure wrapped up in the surface of a wall, a contemporary object cast in volcanic ash as if it was found on some future archaeological site. Structural experiment, historical inquiry, and satirical wit all combine in Arsham’s ongoing interrogation of the real and the imagined. In 2004, Arsham participated in the group show Miami Nice at Galerie Emmanuel Perrotin (Paris), which began to represent Arsham in 2005. As one of the founders of the seminal Miami artist-run spaces, “The House”, his interest in collaboration began early. In 2004 legendary choreographer Merce Cunningham asked Arsham to create the stage design for his work eyeSpace. Following this Arsham toured with the Merce Cunningham Dance Company for performances in Australia, France, and multiple locations in the United States. Arsham’s first stage design for Cunningham was acquired by the Walker Museum for its permanent collection. Despite never being trained in stage design, he has continued his practice in stage, collaborating with Robert Wilson as well as Jonah Bokaer, who was a former Cunningham dancer. Arsham’s collaboration with Bokaer includes works performed worldwide at locations such as New Museum in New York, IVAM in Spain, and Hellenic Festival in Athens, Greece, Jacob's Pillow Dance Festival in Massachusetts, as well as the prestigious Festival de Avignon. Arsham’s 2013 collaboration with musician and producer Pharrell Williams involved the recreation of Pharrell’s first keyboard in volcanic ash. To further expand the possibilities of spatial manipulation and collaboration, Arsham founded Snarkitecture in 2007 with partner Alex Mustonen to serve new and imaginative purposes. Their multidisciplinary practice has included collaborations with designers Public School and Richard Chai, the entrance pavilion for Design Miami, as well as a complete line of functional design objects. Arsham’s work has been shown at MoMA PS1 in New York, Museum of Contemporary Art in Miami, Athens Biennial in Athens, Greece, New Museum In New York, Mills College Art Museum in Oakland, California, and Carré d’Art de Nîmes in France, among others. The first monograph of Arsham’s work was published by the French Centre National des arts plastiques, and a second one was published by Galerie Perrotin in 2012. Arsham is represented by Galerie Perrotin in Paris, Hong Kong, and New York, Moran Bondaroff (formerly OHWOW) in Los Angeles, Baró Galeria in Sao Paulo, and Pippy Houldsworth Gallery in London.〔http://www.danielarsham.com/about/〕 His latest series, Future Relic, is two years in the making and consists of nine short films that depict a future civilization before and after Earth undergoes major ecological changes. The series also includes sculptures of petrified twentieth-century media artifacts constructed to look like artifacts decaying from obsolescence. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Daniel Arsham」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
