Kalmus Marion Kalmus shows include commissions shown at Tate Liverpool, U.K. and The Royal Festival Hall, London. She was awarded the 1998 Kettles Yard Fellowship and was artist in residence at Cambridge University, U.K. She was shortlisted for the Imagineria Award (Excellence in British Digital Arts) in 1999. In 2001 she was shortlisted for the Jerwood Sculpture Prize. Her permanent architectural intervention for Norman Fosters National Botanic Garden of Wales opened in December 2001. In 2002 her work was shown at the Victoria and Albert Museum, London. The first of her series of text sculptures for city skylines was installed in 2003. She has been nominated for the Jerwood Artists Platform 2004. Kalmus work is idea based and she therefore works in a variety of media depending on suitability to each proposal. Her work is frequently site specific. In recent shows she has used: - Drawing, print and photography to produce works for gallery spaces. - Digital technologies, video and surround sound to create cinematic, painterly installations in unusual spaces. - Sculpture and architecture to make large scale interventions in galleries, public buildings and city skylines. - Individual and mass performance to produce event based works which range from the vast to the highly intimate in scale. Her body of work is complemented by an extensive catalogue
of drawings which document her proposals and as yet unrealized works.
Kalmus works are often cross media and category. For ease of navigation they are listed here by inclination (click on a word in the banner). Some works appear in more than one section. Selected works are listed chronologically in the index opposite. Current work includes: Levitation Event: an exterior work for the Brighton
Pavilion, U.K. (Winter 2004/5). In which the artist proposes to levitate
members of the public in the grounds of The Brighton Pavilion.
