Rebecca Warren has generously created a Limited Edition on the occasion of her solo exhibition at the Serpentine Gallery (10 March – 19 April 2009).
British artist Rebecca Warren (b 1965) is known internationally for her intense, roughly-worked clay sculptures, bronzes and vitrines containing carefully assembled objects that the artist has collected.
Described as ‘an original and formidable talent’, Warren’s oeuvre combines rich art historical and contemporary references. The artist challenges sculptural conventions whilst also engaging with the history of figurative sculpture and her position within this predominantly male tradition.
Warren’s shape-shifting sculptures in clay and bronze range from amorphous to more recognisable forms, which are sometimes sexually explicit, embracing both the formal and the grotesque.
Rebecca Warren lives and works in London. She was nominated for the Turner Prize in 2006, and for the 2008 Vincent Award, at the Stedelijk Museum, Amsterdam. Her work was also the subject of a major solo exhibition at Kunsthalle Zurich in 2004.
