  • Rodney Graham Biography
    Rodney Graham Rodney Graham pulls at the threads of cultural and intellectual history through photography, film, music, performance and painting. He presents cyclical narratives that pop with puns and references to literature and philosophy, from Lewis Carroll to Sigmund Freud to Kurt Cobain, with a sense of humour that betrays Graham’s footing in the post-punk scene of late 1970s Vancouver. The nine-minute loop Vexation Island (1997) presents the artist as a 17th-century sailor, lying unconscious under a coconut tree with a bruise on his head; after eight and a half minutes he gets up and shakes the tree inducing a coconut to fall and knock him out, and for the sequence to start again. Graham returns as a cowboy in How I Became a Ramblin’ Man (1999) and as both city dandy and country bumpkin in City Self/Country Self (2001) – fictional characters all engaged in an endless loop of activity. Such dream states and the ramblings of the unconscious are rooted in Graham’s earlier upside-down photographs of oak trees. Inversion, Graham explains, has a logic: ‘You don’t have to delve very deeply into modern physics to realise that the scientific view holds that the world is really not as it appears. Before the brain rights it, the eye sees a tree upside down in the same way it appears on the glass back of the large format field camera I use.’ (2005) Rodney Graham was born in Abbotsford, British Columbia, Canada in 1949. He graduated from the University of British Columbia, Burnaby, Canada in 1971 and lives and works in Vancouver, Canada.

  • A Poet of Images, Ian Wallace Explores the Interplay Between Form
    A poet of images, Ian Wallace explores the interplay between form and content, using photography as a vehicle for developing an avant-garde art that weds the strategies of conceptualism with the pictorial tropes of painting. In doing so since the late '60s, he became the pioneer of a photoconceptualism that fundamentally influenced and reconfigured contemporary art practice in Vancouver, not least through his teaching such artists as Jeff Wall, Rodney Graham, Ken Lum and Stan Douglas. Wallace's art encourages a sophisticated involvement from the viewer. His works awaken the allegorical, symbolic potential of everyday subject matter, investing ostensibly non-eventful scenes with meaning. For his first exhibition at Hauser & Wirth - which coincides with a presentation of his work in three concurrent chapters at the Kunstverein für die Rheinlande und Westfalen, Düsseldorf, Witte de With, Rotterdam, and Kunsthalle Zürich - Wallace is showing four new, interrelated works. Each comprises of a quartet of canvases that relate collectively to the context in which they are shown. Their photographed subjects are, respectively, the Elgin Marbles, the section of the Piccadilly street facing the gallery, people gathered on the floor of Tate Modern's Turbine Hall watching a performance of Ben Vautier's Audience Piece No. 10, and the construction of new walls in the gallery Hauser & Wirth. The installation sets up a number of tacit relationships. Bodies are represented as seen and seeing subjects in the form of the Tate spectators (The Audience) and the sculpted torsos at the British Museum (The Marbles) that face each other across the gallery. The remaining two groups of works likewise offset and reflect each other: while the images in The Street refer directly to the space behind the wall on which they are hung, the canvases in The Wall dwell on the plastering and painting of this same wall some months before.
