Bio:
Matthew Buckingham is an artist based in New York and Berlin.
Utilizing photography, film, video, audio, writing and drawing, his work questions the role that social memory plays in contemporary life. Buckingham examines dynamic connections between the present and past while scrutinizing the power and effects of images and narration. His installations and interventions create spatial and social contexts that encourage viewers to question the familiar. Recent projects investigate the "creative destruction" of the city of St. Louis; the Indigenous people of the Hudson River Valley; and the genesis of the first dictionary of the English language.
His work has been seen at The Arnolfini, Bristol; Corcoran Gallery of Art, Washington DC; Kunst Werke, Berlin; Museum Moderner Kunst, Vienna; The Museum of Modern Art, New York; P.S.1 Contemporary Art Center, New York; Westfälischer Kunstverein, Münster, Kunstmuseum St. Gallen, Dallas Museum of Art, Saint Louis Art Museum and The Whitney Museum for American Art, New York among others.
In the fall of 2006 he will participate in the Liverpool Biennial and will have a solo exhibition at the Lunds Konsthall. An extensive solo exhibition is in preparation for the Camden Art Centre and will travel to DCA Dundee; WIELS Asbl Vzw, Brussels; FRAC Bourgogne, Dijon; Des Moines Art Center and the Henry Art Gallery Seattle.
