The next Julia Stoschek Collection exhibition will be dedicated to British artist and 2012 Turner Prize winner Elizabeth Price (born 1966 in Bradford, Great Britain, lives and works in London).

Since 2006, Elizabeth Price has mainly worked with digital moving images. The key focus of her conceptual, institution-critical works has been to examine the significance of cultural artifacts, collections and archives.

 

Each work initially arises from an idea on a place and its history. In an analytical approach to the location, Price then explores the broadest variety of different sources of material and devises dramas to occur in that location, which feature no direct human action. Instead historical artifacts, archival images and documents are used to enact social occurrences and play out collective fears and desires.
