Using installation, environment, and sculpture, Dora Budor’s work inhabits cinematic ecosystems and unstable architectural constellations. Her works are constructed as complex systems, in which each element exists in interdependency with the other. This often includes context of the site, to which the work reacts and negotiates its initial conditions. Her sculptures have incorporated screen-used cinema props, bringing together the material, affective, and ideological dimensions of image production. In recent site-specific works, she has composed nondeterministic systems out of sound, dust, and light, and she has created a live score from the reconstruction process of a historical building. She was born in Croatia in 1984 and currently lives in New York. Her work has recently been exhibited at the 16th Istanbul Biennial, Turkey; Kunsthalle Basel, Switzerland; 80WSE, New York; Swiss Institute, New York; and Baltic Triennial 13, Vilnius, Lithuania. In 2020, Kunsthaus Bregenz in Austria will present her largest solo exhibition to date. Budor was a recipient of the Rema Hort Mann Foundation’s Emerging Artist Prize in 2014, Pollock Krasner Foundation Grant in 2018, and, in 2019, she was awarded the prestigious Guggenheim Fellowship. |
