Artist

Alfredo Jaar

B.1956, Chilean

Born in 1956 and based in New York City, Alfredo Jaar is a Chilean-born artist, architect, photographer, and filmmaker. Experimenting with these different mediums, he often brings these components together in installations, tackling the intricacies of socio-political currents and the parameters of war. Ricocheting between these elements, neon text-based works might imbue a series of photographs with hues of red or amber, or a film may trickle audio into the space. Impactful and poetic, collectively, the installations dismantle dogmatic political assumptions and carve out space for smaller moments of lived experience. Often working outside of the gallery space, he has created more than seventy public interventions around the world. He has participated in numerous biennales such as Venice, São Paulo and Documenta, he became a Guggenheim Fellow in 1985 and a MacArthur Fellow in 2000. More recent accolades include the Hiroshima Art Prize in 2018 and the Hasselblad Award in 2020. ...
