Autorenporträt

Taryn Simon (born 1975) directs our attention to familiar systems of organisation-bloodlines, criminal investigations, mourning, flower arrangements-making visible the contours of power and authority hidden within. Incorporating mediums ranging from photography and sculpture to text, sound, and performance, each of her projects is shaped by years of research and planning. Simon has been the subject of monographic exhibitions at the MoMA, Tate and Neue Nationalgalerie. Her work is in the permanent collections of museums around the world. Joshua Chuang is head of The New York Public Library's Wallach Division of Art, Prints and Photographs. Tim Griffin is executive director and chief curator at The Kitchen.
