Claude Wampler

Description

Working at the intersection of art installation and performance, Claude Wampler engages and experiments with liveness and the art object, concealment and revelation, the performance of the spectator, and the productivity of failure. Using video, painting, photography, lighting, sound, sculpture, costume, and texts, to explore the possibilities and the value of grafting performance technique onto visual expression and vice versa, Wampler creates an experience of immediacy/excess in which the viewer leaves with a sense of mystery or magic. Claude has had solo exhibitions and performances at The Whitney Museum of American Art, The Kitchen, New Museum for Contemporary Art, and P.S. 122 (New York); The Andy Warhol Museum (Pittsburgh), The Hammer Museum (Los Angeles), the Walker Art Center (Minneapolis), and in many international institutions including the Taipei Fine Arts Museum, Witte de With & Schouwburg Theater (Rotterdam), the Yokohama Triennale, Kaaistudios (Brussels), and many others. EDUCATION 1998-2000 Masters Degree in Performance Studies, New York University Tisch School of the Arts, Thesis Advisor: Fred Moten 1991-1994 Studied and performed with the Hakutobo Butoh Dance Company, Tokyo 1985-1989 BFA, State University of New York at Purchase, Conservatory of Theater Arts & Dance with Academic Credits from Columbia University, School of Arts & Sciences; and Operatic Study at Carnegie-Mellon University, Music Division
