Iris Touliatou

Iris Touliatou’s practice explores the field between history and representation, raising associations concerning politics and form. References from a wide range of historical sources are employed; cinema, modernist architecture, art history, theatre design and literature become the staging grounds for elaborate proposals. The research has been mainly focused on the complex set of practices that we refer to as Modernism and on its principal actors, while deploying an array of media for its realiza- tion;
sculpture, collage, printing, lens based work, script writing, performative lectures etc.
Beneath this pluralism lies the desire to form new narratives, where both appropriated and self-generated material merge to comment upon art production itself, its mechanisms and displays in relation to a political and social context.

Iris Touliatou (b. 1981 in Athens, GR) lives and works between Paris, FR and Berlin, DE.  She received her degree from the Ecole Nationale Superieure des Beaux-Arts de Paris (2008) and she is the recipient of the Unesco Aschberg Fellowship (2014) and the Future of Europe Art prize in 2012. Touliatou's work was recently been the subject of solo exhibitions at the Leipzig Museum of Contemporary Art, Palais de Tokyo, Greek National Theatre and Duve Berlin Gallery and has been included in various group exhibitions at such galleries as Pedro Cera, Lisbon, Fondation Ricard, Paris; MOT International, London (2011) National Museum of Contemporary Art, Athens.
