Jeremy Deller

Kunstverein Munchen, Munich

The artist works on a broad spectrum of projects encompassing such diverse media as performance, film, video, posters and publications. In his works Deller is often concerned with socially marginalized groups and their cultural productions. Thus, not only the creative potential, but also the subversive qualities inherent in cultural processes of the everyday become visible.

A retrospective

The current Turner Prize laureate Jeremy Deller (*1966, London) will present his worldwide first retrospective at Kunstverein München in October/November 2005. The show includes all major works from 1993 until today: from early poster projects (1993) to the fan-project The Uses of Literacy (1998) to the monumental re-enactment of the miners' strike of 1984/85 in The Battle of Orgreave (2001/2004).

At the interface between artist, curator, and producer, Deller works on a broad spectrum of projects encompassing such diverse media as performance, film, video, posters and publications. In his works Deller is often concerned with socially marginalized groups and their cultural productions. Thus, not only the creative potential, but also the subversive qualities inherent in cultural processes of the everyday become visible. Deller's oeuvre sidesteps the simplifying and socially excluding distinctions between high, popular and folk art and by focussing on specific social scenes counters the official gaze of historiography with alternative narratives and local histories.

In 2004 Jeremy Deller was awarded the Turner Prize, the most prestigious British prize for contemporary art.
