Tamar Guimarães
Tamar Guimarães (b. Belo Horizonte, BR, lives and works in Berlin and Copenhagen) is a visual artist working with film and other forms of time based media, exploring situations both residual and contemporary, of art, architecture and the institutions that present them. She often works with actors alongside non- actors in semi-fictional films. Another, more documentary thread of her work delves into states of rapture and their intersection with the nation state.
Guimarães’ works have been included at the Renaissance Society, Chicago (USA); the 33rd, 31st and the 29th São Paulo Biennial; the Belgian Pavilion at the 56th Venice Biennial; the International Exhibition at the 55th Venice Biennial; at the LACMA - Los Angeles County Museum of Art (USA); Baltimore Museum of Art (USA); the 11th Sharjah Biennial (UAE); the Banff Centre, Alberta (CA); the Guggenheim Museum, NY (USA); the SculptureCenter (NY/USA); the 7th Gwangju Biennial (SK); the Jumex museum, Mexico (MX); Frac/Le Plateau, Paris (FR).
