| Bill Jones is a photographer and installation artist. His work is concerned with the subject of light as physical phenomena and metaphorical figure, and inhabits the liminal spaces created by the conjunction of performance, installation and object art. Jones was a seminal figure in the Vancouver School of conceptual photography, along with such artists as Christos Dikeakos, Rodney Graham, Jeff Wall and Ian Wallace. His work has been shown widely in the US and internationally including a mid-career retrospective, "Bill Jones: Ten Years of Multiple Image Narratives" at the International Center of Photography, NY; PS1 Contemporary Art Centre, The Brooklyn Museum, The Jewish Museum, Sandra Gering Gallery, Rotunda Gallery, Lombard-Freid Fine Arts, Amy Lipton Gallery, White Columns, (all in NY); San Francisco MOMA; The High Museum, Atlanta; The Milwaukee Art Center; Musee d'Art Moderne, Paris; Kettle's Yard, Cambridge, UK. Jones has collaborated for the past 12 years with musician Ben Neill to establish a new chapter in complicit media arts. Their multimedia works include Palladio, an interactive, playable movie based on the novel by Jonathan Dee, that premiered in Glasgow and at New York's Symphony Space in 2004. Jones' work from the permanent collection of The Art Gallery of Ontario (Toronto) was included in the 2008 grand re-opening; his most recent solo exhibition was at Paul Petro Gallery in Toronto: Bill Jones & Suzy Lake: Suzy Lake as Patty Hearst, Nov-Dec, 2008. |
