comunicato stampa

Janice Kerbel (b. 1969) is a London-based Canadian artist known for rigorous “studies” which are at once realizable and imaginary. Her diverse body of work includes: Bank Job (1999), a detailed master-plan to rob Coutts Bank in London; Deadstar (2006), a town map of a ghost town; Remarkable (2009), a series of typographical posters announcing the exploits of exceptional performers; Ballgame (2009-12), a scripted play-by-play commentary of “a statistically average” baseball game; and most recently Kill The Workers! (2011), a play written for theatrical lights.

Kerbel’s newest work Cue (2012), further investigates the language and form of light, through theatrical lighting cues. Comprised of 36 silkscreen prints built up from layering various opacities of black ink, Cue also explores the relationships between light and printing, movement and stillness, and pure form and representation.

Kerbel has held solo exhibitions at: Chisenhale Gallery, London; Badischer Kunstverein, Karlsrhue; Tate Britain, London; Greengrassi, London; and Moderna Museet, Stockholm; and has participated in the group exhibitions: Cactus Craze, Kunstwerke Berlin; True Romance, Kunsthalle Kiel; and British Art Show 6, Baltic Newcastle. Her 2006 radio play, Nick Silver Can’t Sleep, was commissioned by ArtAngel and broadcast on BBC Radio3. Upcoming 2012 exhibitions of Kerbel’s work include: Presentation House, Vancouver; Bucharest Biennial; and Kolnischer Kunstverein
